Mother Mary of the Mystical Rose Botanical Rosary
Mother Mary of the Mystical Rose Botanical Rosary
This one-of-a-kind handmade rosary is inpired by the Mother Mary of the Mystical Rose archetype.
This rosary contains 91 beads of four types:
46 rose quartz beads
33 Handmade clay beads painted with rose dye and gold shimmer
10 tiny strawberry quartz roses
2 gold Mother Mary beads
The rosary can be worn, placed in an altar and/or used for prayer/intention setting.
The clay beads are lovingly made using a slow, intentional process. First, I shape the clay by hand, then paint them with 13 coats of rose dye created from rose petals and sacred well water. I go on pilgrimages to collect sacred well water - for these beads I used water from the sacred, healing well at St Keyne’s in Cornwall.
I then dust the beads lightly with gold paint before letting them dry on my altar for a few weeks.
Each rosary takes weeks to make and is infused with love, ritual and ceremony - and the divine feminine spirit of the land in the UK.
The rosary comes with a hand-dyed altar cloth, prayer card and crystal.
