SOME VINTAGE, SOME NEW
A changing collection because of limited supplies. This gathering of old and new beads are especially lovely - called to be a rosary or chaplet. Many  are 'pressed glass' -  a very popular method of making beads in the 19th and 20th century.  Many  are actually reproductions of these early European beads - some actually may be formed from these old molds. And some are made of simple pebbles.

 PSALM 95:1-5
Come, let us sing joyfully to the LORD; cry out to the rock of our salvation. 2 Let us greet him with a song of praise, joyfully sing out our psalms. 3 For the LORD is the great God, the great king over all gods, 4 Whose hand holds the depths of the earth; who owns the tops of the mountains. 5 The sea and dry land belong to God, who made them, formed them by hand.

~ COMMENTS ~
... thanksgiving for the ministry ...
 I love the leaves and the *feel* of the Cross. I love the subtle greens and blues in the luster around the beads (which reminds me of the old glass Christmas ornaments). Please know that the first rosary that I have said tonight is in thanksgiving for the ministry your guild has undertaken in making these and the loving care with which you make them.  Blessings to all of you, (Anon)

... using it every morning ...
  The beads do have a wonderful feel to them, and the additional purplish small beads give it a nice touch. I have been using it every morning in devotional meditation similar to the traditional rosary. Thank you so much for applying your abilities to this creation! Eric Hogan (Great Britain)

... finding the right beads ...
  It's absolutely magnificent -- more beautiful than I could have imagined. thank you so much, and thank you for searching around and finding the right beads. Your work is beautiful and I will probably be back to you in the future! Thank you again, in peace, Jennifer S. (IL)

... it is incredibly strong ...
Have just returned from Ireland, where I was at a meeting. I brought the Buri Seed Rosary with me and, in the midst of a rather difficult meeting, it was good to hold on to it, and to use it at night. It is incredibly strong and velvet-like at the same time. The Foundation (turquoise) Rosary I will use on Saturdays. Beautiful beads. Anyway, thanks again. And I shall be singing your praises!  Fr Michael (UK)

... it just feels so comfortable in the hand ...
The Burri seed rosary has easily become my favorite with which to pray already! It just feels so comfortable in the hand. I really like the new Paters (of course the photo did not really do the whole rosary justice on the website). The "burri" seed, whatever that may be, really looks like a tagua nut---something I have wanted to make a rosary out of for some time now. At any rate, I was so impressed with the burri seed, that I may want to buy another to give to a friend. Are there more in your inventory? Let me know at your convenience. J Bleck (IN)
