Rosary Bracelet in Bone - Sacred Vow

Rosary Bracelet in Bone - Sacred Vow
When I started making rosaries, my first one was made in glass. And, although it was beautiful and shimmered and was a favorite of many, my mother's first question when she saw it was... "have you made any in natural beads yet?"

This question was what inspired the Sacred Vow rosary bracelet seen here. Made from beads of bone, this bracelet is simplistic and beautiful in gold tones with black bone beads for the aves and a larger white bone bead for the pater near the clasp. The handmade chaplet bracelet comes with a full-color saint charm attached near the pater bead and a delicate brass cross as well as handmade infinity links between each bead.

I've also designed a full sized rosary and a smaller christian charm with this same theme.
