Such a quality made rosary that a French nun had and prayed with every day. This is one that I love as St. Tse of Lisieux is also my favorite patron Saint. The center medal has St. Tse on the back and Madonna with Baby Jesus on the front. The wooden beads are 8MM black and worn from prayers, but in very good condition. The crucifix is overwhelming as it is 2 3/4" by 1 1/2". The raised Corpus and Starburst Nimbus, & INRI, along with a silky feeling to the crucifix from holding and praying is found to be true on this particular crucifix. What is more astounding is that the bail on the crucifix is hallmarked for silver, on both sides. Very unusual to see this as I have dealt with a lot of rosaries in 25 years and never knew that I had one until now. This is a treasure to pray with and to have as it is a nice size, not too small and not too large. The length is 24" long, with a circumference of 32" and a drop of 8". The first medal is very unusual as well, it is St. Gabriel of the Sorrowful Virgin Mary, and on the reverse is St. Paul of the Cross. This is a bronze medal and it is fairly old. The next medal is a silver alloy medal with St. Gerard on the front, and on the reverse is Our Lady of Perpetual Help. The next medal is a painted blue medal with the Sacred Heart on top, the Blessed Virgin Mary of N.D. in the center St. Joseph with read more
