Mary, Rose Ever Blooming
|
|
Via Rosa's collection of rosaries, chaplets, and necklaces
to celebrate Mary's title as:
"Rose Ever Blooming"
|
|
|

The origin of the word "rosary" means crown, or garland, of
roses.
In the typical modern rosary, the rosary is joined with a centerpiece depicting Mary, a saint, or a
special devotion; the pendant culminates with a crucifix. In this unique configuration,
the carved rose, representing Mary by her title of Rose Ever Blooming, is on the pendant; the image of
Christ, represented by the Sacred Heart of Jesus, is the centerpiece.
Incorporating a rose into the design is a meaningful tribute to the origins of the rosary; the
"jewels in the crown", the prayers, remain the same.
