“In this calm oasis…it is easy to feel the benefits of silence, a quality that is becoming rarer and rarer today.
The many opportunities modern society affords for relations and information sometimes run the risk of leaving no room for recollection, even to the point of jeopardising a person's ability to reflect and pray.
Actually, it is only in silence that human beings can hear in their inmost being the voice of God which truly sets them free. …”
— Pope John Paul II, July 11, 2004

The large simple cross of this rosary is cast from a Coptic antique, in solid white bronze.

The leaf-like Pater beads are pleasantly weighty. They're Greek pewter —copper-dipped, and finished with antiqued silver. Alongside each Pater are beads of solid brass.

The stone Aves are rhyolite, in muted greens.

The prayer beads are separated by small beads of matte glass. The connecting rings are bronze and sterling.

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.
