Handcrafted in Italy The rosary has roots in several early Christian prayer traditions. Knotted prayer ropes were used in early Christianity; the Desert Fathers are said to have created the first such, using knots to keep track of the number of times they said the Jesus prayer or the 150 psalms. This elegant Rosary is hand crafted from Malachite beads in Italy. Malachite is a crystal known for its powerful properties that promote healing transformations.
