Nazareth StoreNazareth Store Rose smell Rosary Petal Red Rare Carved Beads & Silver Plated cross (Holy Land)

I received this red wooden rosary and it is exactly as pictured. It's very beautiful and I have been very pleased with it. It came in a nice round plastic case with Holy pictures on it. It is beautiful and well built, with a detailed silver crucifix and silver Jerusalem cross, with the word Jerusalem stamped on them. The beads are small, but not too small, where they won't be noticed, or feel awkward when holding them. I have been wearing it and it is very comfortable, especially in hot weather. I have also been using the beads in prayer, and I have had no issues with it coming apart or the cross bending. But I am gentle with it. It smells like roses, but that doesn't last long and I am ok with that. It also is bright red, but over time with use, the beads turn to a darker wine color. Also the silver cross and center piece will dull a bit, giving them an antique look. All of that I am ok with, and think it looks kind of cool actually. I have had compliments on the look of this rosary.I will definitely buy another. This arrived fast with no issues of being broken during shipping. Highly recommended!

Bought this for my wife. She is not Catholic so is still a little intimidated by it, but she's learning. She loves it. Does smell lie roses, and we keep it in the case it comes in to keep that from going away too soon. Not sure if it ever will, but also keeps the rosary from other harm. It is very ornate and looks like it should cost a lot more for the detail.

I love the rose scented rosaries…so inspiring…and a great addition to my prayer and devotionals.

I am a Protestant, but I bought this as a sermon illustration. I didn’t use it for that. I have been using it for my personal prayer time. The beads are pretty and have a nice touch.

It does not smell of roses or anything else, but it is really a lovely rosary for the money. Not at all disappointed. If the rose smell is a must for you, you may be disappointed. It would have been nice to have the rose smell since I was trying to replicate my late Dad's rosehip rosary, which smelled heavenly. But not I do not regret the purchase at all.

They do not have rose scent, ok for occasional use, if you have guests that brought none, but not sturdy and for sure they have no scent,. I have rosaries that have been in the family for over 50 years, passed down to me and the scent of roses is ever present, if you are looking for those then this product will disappoint you. I knew when ordering I was taking a risk so I was not so disappointed by the quality. I just needed to have enough for a large gathering, one time use kind of event. I purchased 7 5 red 1 blue and a purple one, the purple broke when touched the first time the others held up ok.

I bought this rosary because my late mother had one that was sent to her from Spain, it was very similar (hers had round beads) this one has different shaped beads and it reminded me of her & the beautiful rose scent that came off of it every time she prayed. I was a bit disappointed because this one it does not have any scent. If the description says it has roses scent then it should smell like roses . Either way I am keeping it because it is beautiful, well crafted, and I needed urgently a rosary.Pros:● Beautifully & well crafted● Excellent materials used● Arrives in a nice plastic box to keep it safe.Cons:● It does not have roses scent (at least mine does not) Hopefully if you buy it does.PS. Will upload pictures and video as soon as the app allows me to.

Perfect catholic present
