INDEX OF ROSARIES FROM THE 1700s
By the 1700s, the silver filigree rosary from Austria
and Bavaria is in greater demand. They are very elegant, with the Paternosters
of filigree beads and the Ave’s in coral, crystal and other precious stones.
Small reliquary boxes from pilgrimages are attached and many have unidentified
pieces of wood set into the crosses.
CORAL FILIGREE - PATER NOSTER - 1720 - DIRECTORY
Seven decades of Ave beads are popular. (These filigree Rosaries are still being made and sold today in Augsburg Germany.)
