This rosary is made from candy jade. These gems are a particularly beautiful raspberry color, and are faceted to give them added interest. I prefer to avoid gemstones whose color has been altered through dyes, but when I am confident that the coloration is permanent, I will make a few exceptions, especially when the customer is looking for particular colors or variations at an affordable price, as found in candy jade or crazy lace agates. Candy Jade is actually a white Jadeite or Chalcedony Quartz that is put through a complex heating and color enhancing process that penetrates the surface through to the center. The infused coloration permeates the gemstone to its center. Since this is not a surface treatment, the color cannot be rubbed or scratch off as with some dyed stones. I have tested these beads, including cracking a sample open to verify that the color penetrates throughout.
As with most of my rosaries, the crucifix and center are hand-cast reproductions of vintage rosary parts. The metal in this rosary is solid bronze.
