Rosary Workshop - CWSP.5013 - CWSP.5016
SEEDS of ASSISI  VI, VII CHAPLETS
'NEW CLAY' BEAD BY KAREN LEWIS
A remarkable - one of a kind Klew bead chaplets .  Two sizes shown here. The smaller Klew bead is about  .75in and the larger is 1.75 inches.  Each chaplet boasts an incredible hand made Pater bead by California artist, Karen Lewis.  No two are exactly alike. These beads are remarkably tough, growing in beauty as they are prayed over the years. She is only able to make a limited number in any one combination of color and design. Once gone, there is no way to repeat it.

Each color you see is a different piece of clay. She has layered and sliced each design sequence very thin to create these remarkable beads. Our images do not do them justice.  The 10 ave beads are either antiqued bone or textured brown bodhi seeds.

CHAPLET BEADS: close up of Klews beads
 BEADS ARE TOUGH.  WE SAW A SAMPLE THAT WAS OVER
5 YEARS OLD AND IT HAD ACQUIRED A BEAUTIFUL PATINA.
IT WAS BEING USED DAILY ON A KEY CHAIN AND HAD NOT
LOST ANY OF ITS DESIGN.
