Vintage Rosary Beads Sterling Silver Crucifix & Virgin Mary Centre Medal.

A vintage rosary featuring a sterling silver crucifix and sterling silver centre medal depicting the Virgin Mary (this central element is traditionally known as the centre medal or rosary centre).

The crucifix is well detailed, with an ornate design and clear INRI plaque, and the Marian centre medal shows a finely cast profile of the Virgin Mary with a haloed background. Both silver elements test as sterling silver.

The beads are clear, faceted round beads linked with metal chain. The bead material is unconfirmed and may be plastic or another early synthetic material; they are not tested as glass or crystal and are described honestly as such.

A classic devotional piece with attractive age-related patina, suitable for collection, devotional use, or display.
