I get that question a lot, and it's a fair question. Some of my Rosaries are $550-$600...but there are also $50 Rosaries in the shop, and I spend the same effort on them as with the more expensive ones. The wire wrap Rosaries are time consuming, labor intensive Rosaries; and I use more expensive components--they are heirloom quality, and I put the best components I can find to use there. But I also make a simple, wire wrapped brown and Bronze Rosary that is very popular with third order Franciscans and seminarians--under $100 for a Rosary that will happily reside in a pocket and is sturdy enough for heavy use without breaking. Ever.
There is also a collection of Cable (that is, strung on wire cable) Rosaries in the $40-70 range--
In short, I put my heart and love for Mary in every Rosary, no matter how humble--and I want to honor Mary with the best fruits of my work, whatever the price is. It is by God's Grace channeled through the Blessed Mother that I am able to put food on the table by doing what I love.
Hope that helps. Blessings+

Rosary in Poppy Jasper, Sapphire, and bronze, version 2
This is the same Rosary as you see in my last listing, minus a Challenge Coin--
The Rosary uses Poppy Jasper, a dark reddish brown, for the Aves and big 13mm carved Sapphire (yes it is really Sapphire, obviously not gem quality but with beautiful color) for the Paters
The Crucifix is a St Joan of Arc Cross. She knew her calling in life and pursued it even to death.
For the center I used miraculous Medal, with all its graces.
Cable Rosaries are not unbreakable as are my wire wrapped ones--but they are sturdily made--connection points use wire guardians whenever possible to keep the wire from fraying and breaking, and each connection is double crimped. Treat it with respect and you will get years of prayer from it.
It is silky smooth and a pleasure to pray--
With its 8mm beads, this is a more substantial Rosary with a pleasant feel and heft in the hand.
Length approx 18"
A reverent and meaningful gift
Check out the quality HeartFelt Rosaries offers at a great price!
As always, this Rosary comes ready for presentation--boxed in silver and in a beaded velvet and organza gift bag!

Lovely, Rusty Carnelian in Silver at HeartFeltRosaries.com
$39
2 available
I love the rusty, cinnamon color of good Carnelian, and I think you will, too. This cable (strung) Rosary in Silver plate and large, 8mm Hail Marys also features a center with the Divine Mercy medal on one side, and the Blessed Queen of Heaven on the reverse.
The Our Fathers are some of the newly designed Bali beads from Indonesia--hollow and light weight, but intricate and full of fine wire designs.
But it is the St Benedict Crucifix which stands out the most. It has a delicate scrolling detail front and back and is quite sturdy.
Cable Rosaries are not unbreakable as iare my wire wrapped ones--but they are sturdily made--connection points use wire guardians to keep the wire from fraying and breaking, and each connection is double crimped. Treat it with respect and you will get years of work from it.
It is silky smooth and a pleasure to pray--the swirl of wire gently leads your fingers from bead to bead, while the gentle contrast of Paters with their bronze bead caps make it easy to differentiate them without looking.
With its 8mm beads, this is a more substantial Rosary with a pleasant feel and heft in the hand.
Length approx 18"

Sparkling Black Diamond and Sterling Silver Cable Rosary now listed at HeartFeltRosaries.com!

$127
Genuine Swarovski Black Diamond Crystal with Sterling Crucifix and center, Pave Black Diamond Our Fathers Pandora style beads.. Silver plate bead caps add interest and weight.
Think of this rosary for weddings, 50th aniversaries and Holiday gifting--or just have it on the bedside table, or in the kitchen!
It should not be used as a pocket Rosary, as that will put too much tension and wear on the cable--but protected by a gift bag (Included), it will ride safely with you in your purse
It makes me smile to see it! Want it in a different color? Or as a wire wrap, unbreakable heirloom? Contact me at HeartFeltRosaaries.com

NEW Challenge Coin Navy Rosary
Today I am focusing on a Navy Rosary for those who serve--and those who pray for them.
ALSO AVAILABLE AS A SPECIAL ORDER--MARINES, ARMY, AIR FORCE, NAVY, LAW ENFORCEMENT
This is a Cafe-au-lait Mother of Pearl and Bronze Rosary for our Navy Soldiers and those who pray for them!
There is a Pardon Crucifix with all it's indulgences and graces, a Miraculous Medal center, and a Navy medal (United States Navy with an Eagle on the front,and, on the reverse, Archangel Michael.
I had not heard of Challenge medals before I came across them while searching for a medal. I think they started in the Armed Forces as tokens given when certain accomplishments were being recognized. They are handsome, and no detail was omitted in the design of these heavy and stunning coins.
The Rosary is strung upon heavy, 40# test strength, 49-strand cable wire coated in nylon for durability.
Genuine 12mm, high quality Bronzite Paters with bronze plated connectors give a warm feel to the Rosary.
You may also order this as a wire-wrapped Rosary if you wish it to be unbreakable. Contact me at HeartFeltRosaries.com.
NOTE!!!-I have 2 listed today, but more are available within the week.
