Beautiful Rosary

I struggled with which one of the rosaries to purchase from your company. I finally chose this beauty with the hematite beads. It surpassed my expectations! It is silky feeling and has some weight to it and the silver accents are perfect with the hematite. I can't imagine anyone not being totally pleased with this Rosary.

Rugged Rosaries are the best

I have bought multiple Rugged Rosaries and am never disappointed. They truly are rugged. I have broken rosaries with just daily used despite being carefull. I never have to worry about that with Rugged Rosaries. Many rosaries are “prettier” (although in the eye of the beholder) but Rugged Rosaries’ beads feel so much better to actually use. S

small but strong

The appeal of this rosary is its small size; at first I wondered it it would, though, we less sturdy than the other RR rosaries. It's just right.
