This five-decade Rosary features a beautiful bronze medal of St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus and a filigree bronze crucifix.  Both are pure bronze vintage reproductions. 
 
St. Thérèse was called “The greatest Saint of modern times” by Pope St. Pius X.  Her mission was to teach souls to love “the Good God” through her Little Way of abandonment and love.  She lived a short, but fervent life, and died at the young age of 24 in her Carmelite convent in Lisieux.  She promised to continue her mission in Heaven and let fall a “Shower of Roses” upon earth for all those who invoked her assistance.
 
The crucifix measures 40mm by 25 mm and the centerpiece is about 25mm in length by 25mm wide.  The front of the centerpiece has a dainty floral border and her name in Latin, “Sancta Teresia a Jesu Infante” surrounding her image.   The crucifix has beautiful floral designs intertwined on each arm. 
 
The Ave beads are beautiful 6mm blush pink Aurora Borealis Opal gemstone beads and white pearls and the Pater beads are 7-8mm blush pink oval Aurora Borealis Opals, ornamented with tiny bronze floral bead caps. 
 
Each Rosary is carefully handmade and the recipient is prayed for during the creation process.
