18c FILIGREE MEDAL ROSARY
EUCHARISTIC MEDALLION
Purchased in 1999 in Southern Bavaria near the
site of the Passion Play, this antique filigree rosary or 'Rosenkranz'
is not all that far from it origin. Very popular during the 17th, 18th
and 19th century, these rosaries are still made and we found new ones at
a shop in Augsburg Germany.
CONFIGURATION - MEDALLION - BEADS - CROSSES
A great find, this rosary along with several others
of similar design and quality were in the window of an Antique shop
on a side street in Ober Ammergau. Dealer dated this rosary as late 18c.
