Chalcedony is a microcrystalline variety of quartz, which means it is composed of very fine intergrowths of quartz crystals. It is a cryptocrystalline form of silica, meaning its crystal structure is not visible to the naked eye. Chalcedony is known for its smooth and waxy appearance.
The Miraculous Medal and Pardon Crucifix complete this heirloom quality rosary. The pardon crucifix is a crucifix that incorporates promises of indulgences (remissions of temporal punishment for sins). The pardon crucifix serves as a reminder of God’s mercy and the importance of seeking forgiveness for one’s sins. (A handout is included with this rosary that explains the Pardon Crucifix, history and indulgences)
This beautiful handmade rosary crafted in Oklahoma is made of large 10mm nonfaceted (smooth) beads accented with intricate bead caps.

Catholic 5 Decade – Lifetime repair warranty – and velveteen bag with handmade charm included.
Chalcedony is associated with calmness, composure, and emotional balance. It is believed to promote feelings of tranquility, enhance communication, and foster feelings of kindness and generosity.
