The only non-metal components are the striking, premium hand-cut clear glass beads, which feature a beautiful geometric faceting that brilliantly catches the light. Offering a superb tactile experience with a solid total weight of 53 grams, this authentic mid-century piece is ideal for daily prayer, a meaningful sacramental gift, or a standout addition to any vintage religious collection.The rosary is in excellent, structurally perfect vintage condition with no cracks, or loose components. Notably, this piece features a fascinating original factory detail: the manufacturer utilized a smooth round glass bead in place of one of the standard faceted cubic beads. Because this round bead perfectly matches the other round intermediate beads used throughout the strand, it blends seamlessly into the design and is a unique testament to its authentic mid-century manufacturing process rather than a later repair.
