Custom Rosary
Beautiful custom rosary of OurLady Star of the Sea with aurora borealis crystal beads. I added Our Lady of Prompt Succor metal as a side metal to pray especially during Hurricane season. Beautiful rosary!
Our Lady Star of the Sea is an ancient title of Our Lady found in the Marian hymn Ave Maris Stella. The star has been said to symbolize many things – her virginity, her virtue – but perhaps more precisely, Our Lady as the guiding star rising from the tempest of the sea to lead us through difficult waters, our model that is continually showing us the way to her divine Son, the Light of the World. In designing a rosary to honor Our Lady under this title, we chose ocean blue jasper beads. The blue is marbled with white, grey, and tans giving the appearance of a "frothy" look. The Our Fathers are freshwater pearls, the jewels of the sea, capped with sterling star shaped caps. The center has the title of Our Lady Star of the Sea. Since her depiction on this center did not include an image of the star, we included a beautifully detailed star side medal. For the crucifix, we used one with the corpus of Our Lord affixed to an anchor. It is a beautiful symbol - that Our Lord and Redemption is where we place our Hope, the "anchor" of our Faith and our salvation.
