I saw these magnasite beads, alternating blue and ivory, and I thought “that would make a cool rosary!” They sort of remind me of baseball. I'm not sure why, but they do. These 8 mm beads are dyed blue and ivory and are used for both the Ave and the Pater beads. The spacer beads are a combination of round metal beads and clear seed beads. The accent beads on either side of the Paters are corrugated metal bicone beads around 4 mm blue Swarovski crystal bicones. The Pater beads have cone shaped bead caps.
The centerpiece depicts Saint Joseph and the infant Jesus on the front and the Sacred Heart of Jesus on the back. The beefy Jubilee crucifix commemorates the Jubilee year 2000.
The overall length of this rosary is 26 1/4 inches (66.5 cm).
