rosary workshop - museum - german collection
  RELIQUARY CHAPLET or 'TENNER'
FROM THE COLLECTOR IN GERMANY

THE COLLECTOR SHARES
'The beads are from [carved] wood in silver shells [caps]. The three adherents contain relics. This is a typical rosary from South Germany.'
 
CONFIGURATION   -   BEADS/MEDALS


~ CONFIGURATION ~

Interesting configuration of 10 smaller beads and one larger bead. The cross is similar to those of the mid 19 c but the collector did not give us this information. (Added by the Rosary Workshop)



~ BEADS and MEDALS ~

Close up of the beautifully carved wooden beads with 3 medals that are reliquaries holding relics of saints. Glare makes it hard to read but normally the lettering would identify the saints relics.
