The Rolls Royce of Rosaries

I love these kinds of rosaries: big, heavy, d e l u x e. This is it folks. This is what fancy rosaries are all about.

This rosary is every bit a fine piece of jewelry as it is a devotional item. The matched crucifix and center medal are hallmarked "RLC" and stamped "Sterling". There is also an RLC tag attached to the rosary authenticating both the quality of the silver of the entire assembly (crucifix, center, and spacers), but the crystal as well.

    Several medals have been added.
  • On the drop, just above the crucifix is a tiny enamel and silver Scapular Medal.

  • Also on the drop is a Holy Family slide metal

  • On the first and last decades are two additional medals. One is a French Scapular Medal with the devotion "Notre Dame du Scapulaire Protegez Nous." (Our Lady of the Scapular – Protect us) The other is a silver plated Papal medal for Pope Paul VI the back of which shows an iconic image of St. Peter (with a key) and St. Paul (with a sword).
