Everyone should have their very own birthstone rosary to prayerfully ask for Mother Mary's blessings. The translucent colored beads on this rosary are made of glass and are a precious sapphire color, unique to the birthstone month of October. The center piece contains an elegant silver metal image of Mary and a lovely crucifix marks the beginning of the rosary. This exceptional October birthstone rosary would make an excellent First Communion, Confirmation, RCIA initiation, or birthday present for the devout Catholics in your life who were born in October. Like most of the quality rosaries you can buy at St. Patrick's Guild, our October birthstone rosary comes in a clam-shell box for your gift wrapping convenience.
