Inspired by the iconic image of Our Lady of Guadalupe on the tilma created by Blessed Juan Diego, this rosary celebrates the patron saint of all the Americas, who is especially venerated in Mexico.
The Ave beads are Swarovski pearls in Jade, representing the blue-green hue of Our Lady's mantle in the tilma. The Pater beads are genuine Agua Nueva agate (sourced in Mexico) with hues of brown, gold, red, green, and lavender, picking up other colors on the tilma. Accent beads of Swarovski crystals in copper and silver represent the stars strewn across Our Lady's mantle and the garment she wears. The centerpiece is an enameled Our Lady of Guadalupe, and the cross is a brushed silver, both made in Italy.
This rosary is perfect for anyone devoted to Our Lady of Guadalupe or anyone who prays regularly for Mexico and its people. Consider it also as a quinceañera gift or a Confirmation gift. Pray for all the indigenous peoples of the Americas, and all peoples now living in the Americas. May we all know each other as full and equal members of the Mystical Body of Christ.
Note: Natural semiprecious stones such as Agua Nueva agate will exhibit natural variations in color, markings, shadings, and inclusions.
