Little Flower Rosary † Heirloom Bronze and Austrian Crystals
The inspiration behind this piece was St Thérèse de Lisieux--the beloved "Little Flower."
This handcrafted piece features glowing Austrian olive-green crystal beads paired with warm solid bronze elements and antique-style devotional medals. The tones are earthy and quiet, reminiscent of gardens, prayer, and the gentle simplicity St Thérèse taught through her Little Way.
At the center is a medal honoring St Thérèse of Lisieux, the French Carmelite saint who believed holiness was found in small acts done with love. The crucifix is a richly detailed two-sided Sacred Heart crucifix, a symbol of Christ's boundless love that deeply shaped the spirituality of the Carmelite saints. This piece is accented with devotional side medals, including St Michael the Archangel for protection and the Miraculous Medal honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary.
I used 6mm and 8mm faceted Austrian crystals (Olivine and Vintage Rose) with a sprinkling of tiny 2mm olivine crystals. I wire-wrapped each bead with antiqued bronze for longevity and used ornate bronze bead caps, reminiscent of old-world antique European devotional pieces.
Nicely gift wrapped with a soft pouch inside a gift box with a bow.
