Among the most ancient of Our Lady's titles, none is more comforting to the storm-tossed soul than Stella Maris, Star of the Sea. The vivid sea-glass blues of this handmade turquoise rosary honor a stone long prized by travelers, carried by sailors, caravan drivers, and pilgrims setting out for distant shores. Under this title, Mary is the fixed light by which the lost find their bearings home. It is the rosary of the one who prays in the middle watches: for a spouse, for a child, for the courage to make one more crossing.
The Crown of Thorns: A Heritage of the Passion
In ancient Christian tradition, the resilient branches of the Jujube tree were woven into the Crown of Thorns placed upon Christ's head. For centuries, pilgrims to the Holy Land have carried pieces of this heavy, durable wood home as physical reminders of His sacrifice. In this rosary, the Our Father beads, the centerpiece, and the crucifix are all carved from genuine Jujube wood, so that a reflection of the Passion rests in your hands as you pray.
