Our Irish Penal Pocket Rosary is a very convenient and easy to carry straight line single decade rosary. It is fashioned like the Penal Rosaries used in Ireland prior to the 1700s when the church was being persecuted. It was easily hidden up a sleeve or in clothing.
To use this rosary, the ring is placed on the thumb and moved to each finger each time a decade of the rosary is prayed until completion of all 5 decades. The crucifix on this rosary is an Irish design full of symbolism on both the front and back such as the crown of thorns, the ladder used to remove Christ from the cross, the spear, the 5 wounds, and the chalice from the last supper.
By the way, a kind customer, Luigi, suggests that the bottom symbol represents the SPONGE that was soaked with sour wine hyssop and given to Our Lord Jesus, before he breathed his last breath.
How to Pray the Irish Penal Rosary
This rosary comes in a nice small round storage container for storing the rosary, but it also makes a nice gift presentation.

Thank you for shopping and God Bless.
I carry my tenner with me everywhere. It serves as a constant reminder of God’s presence and power in my life. I love this company and I’m grateful for the care and attention they put into each product and package.
This is my third Battle Beads rosary, and I love it just as much as my other two. It is beautifully hand-crafted, and the crucifix is simple yet symbolic. I picked this up to carry me through Lent, and it has found its way into my pocket daily. You can’t go wrong with a Rugged Rosary.
Good quality and quick shipping.
I live the penal rosary. I only wish I knew what the symbols on the Irish cross meant. Perhaps would could write an explanation when you send them out. Otherwise they're the best I've seen.
This is a beautifully made rosary. I have it on my keys so I always have it with me. It's a wonderful addition to my full battle beads rosary which I also love.
These products are very well made.
Beautifully crafted lightweight rosary, just perfect for pocket carry, and easy and comfortable to pray. The Irish Penal Cross has always been my favorite---and so traditional!---for a decade rosary. This is my first bead chain rosary and I truly love it.
Great rosary! Has become my favorite gift for fellow Veterans! Great heft, different size beads makes it easy to get lost in the prayer. I also have the Irish Penal version. Very comfortable to use as well.
As always the quality of this Rosary is excellent. I especially like the ring which someone indicated the user could shift from finger to finger to track the full Rosary. I can either use it as a decade toward something I am praying about or by moving the ring it is easy to track a full Rosary. Love this company, have a couple of items I just purchased, I can hardly wait to get.
