Product code: Irish Horn Rosary, shops made in Ireland
This Irish horn rosary measures 19 1/2" in length. The horn beads measure approximately 5mm. The Hail Mary beads are a shade of red and the Our Father beads are the natural color of horn. The centerpiece is in the shape of a heart. The crucifix measures 1 1/2" x 7/8". It is inscribed 'Ireland' on the reverse side. Irish horn rosaries were typically made with cattle horn and were produced from the 1800s through the 1960s. The horn rosaries did not always last through the years due shops to their natural components. This is a vintage rosary. It shows signs of wear and darkening patina due to age. Questions are welcome.
