"Lamb of God" - Bloodstone, Agnus Dei Crucifix and Center - Handmade Rosary

$320.00

“Ecce Agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccata mundi, Beati, qui ad cenam Agni vocati sunt." — from the Communion Rite of the Mass. “Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world. Happy are we who are called to His supper.”

Images of the Agnus Dei — the Lamb of God — are on the crucifix of this rosary and on the rosary center. At each end of the cross there is a triquetra, symbol of the Holy Trinity, within a circle symbolizing eternity. Both the crucifix and the center are cast of solid bronze.

The Pater beads are hand-carved wood, each unique. They’re set between double caps of solid brass.

The Ave beads are bloodstone, in naturally varied deep blue-greens with occasional touches of muted reds. The reds are traditionally considered symbolic of Christ's blood. These Aves are the 6mm size — slightly smaller than some others we use — yet, thanks to the way they’re spaced, they’re easy to distinguish one from another by touch.

Separating the prayer beads are small beads of matte Japanese glass. All the connecting rings are solid bronze.

The rosary is strung on premium quality Soft Flex jewelers’ cable composed of 49 strands of steel encased in nylon, with a test strength of 26 pounds; each end is double-crimped for security.
