The blue gray of the larvikite contrast with the copper creating a striking combination. Larvikite has a distinctive appearance that sets it apart from other rocks. It has a dark, mottled gray to black base color. The most notable characteristic of larvikite is the presence of labradorescence, which can produce striking flashes of blue, silver, or green when the stone is viewed from different angles. Larvikite takes its name from the town of Larvik in Norway, where it was first discovered.

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). It 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)
