Product Information
This rosary is made with real Connemara marble from Ireland. The rosary was given by our Lady during a vision to St. Dominic, founder of the Dominican Order, in 1465 A.D. The rosary is often given as a gift of peace, comfort, and strength. In these turbulent times, the rosary is still very relevant today as it was eight centuries ago.
Few things reflect the beauty of creation more strongly than the deep, and varied greens of Connemara marble, found only in a small corner of Ireland's Atlantic seaboard. These rosary beads, handmade in Dublin from marble cut at a quarry in Co. Galway, are part of a long tradition in Irish rosary beads. The first rosaries were made by monks of the great settlements like Cashel, Clonmacnoise, and Glendalough. Using the horns of animals, they fashioned beads of natural beauty and simple strength. These beads continue that tradition, combining natural beauty with practical strength. Carry them with you, and tranquility will never be far away... carry them with you and a friend is always near.
