Our rosaries are made with chain formed by hand. This listing is to create your rosary with gold filled chain, which is pictured here with amethyst and lapis lazuli beads.

This chain is made with 14k Gold Filled wire. The links are formed individually, and the wire is strong and durable. Unlike many rosaries on the market, which have thin and weak links, this won’t readily bend or break - it can hold up through many, many prayers.

Gold Filled offers the luxurious appearance of 14k gold at an affordable price, and the metal is quite durable and strong. “Gold Filled” means that the core of the piece (be it a center, crucifix, or chain) is made of brass, with a thick layer of 14k gold bonded to it. Gold Filled pieces have a much thicker plating of gold than “gold plated” pieces, and the gold color remains far longer. Gold Filled pieces can retain their gold for years, even decades. Gold Plated items, on the other hand, retain their gold plating for a short period of time, usually a year or two, and the underlying metal is usually a different color so there is an obvious color change when the gold plating wears away.

Listing is for chain only. These are not for individual sale and must be purchased with other parts to form a complete rosary.
