Simply gorgeous silver work from the French in the later half of the 19th Century! These are delicate, hollow, and marked with the French punched hallmark. Find this beautiful rosaries on The Sacred Bead, your source for the finest antique and vintage rosaries.
Exquisite work on this beautiful crucifix.
Note the three dimensional center, what I call a puffy heart center. Lovely workmanship.
This is a more typical example of a hollow silver crucifix from the 1800s. If you ever have questions about antique rosaries, feel free to email me at The Sacred Bead's email. I happily answer all questions and have advised people from around the world about the antique rosaries they own!
I will be covering many aspects of collecting antique rosaries in my blogs. Symbology, materials, origins, and other issues the antique rosary lover may be curious about will all be discussed. Each blog will feature a rosary from The Sacred Bead or a private collection. You can visit The Sacred Bead at www.thesacredbead.com
