This unique handmade rosary is inspired by many aspects from The Book of Kells. The cross is a replica of the High Cross at the Monastery of Iona. This is where The Book of Kells was created around 800 AD. The source of colours used in the Book were taken from rare plants and minerals such as indigo(blue/purple), orcien(purple) and orpiment(yellow) and are reflected in the beads. These beads are an heirloom piece and make a very special gift. Handcrafted in Ireland, with Connemara Marble’s various shades of green. Connemara means “of the sea” and comes from the Connemara Mountains in the most western parts of Ireland in County Galway.
