Description

This beautiful Rosary comes from Brazil.
The Crucifix is a beautiful solid Trinity cross and the centre medal has the Sacred Heart of Jesus on one side and Our Lady of Grace on the other, as she appears on the Miraculous Medal.
The beads are approximately 7mm oval and are known as Job’s Tears.  They are a natural seed from a tropical plant and come in a soft grey tone.
Artisans have made this ancient bead into jewelry since 3000 B.C. Job’s Tears (coix lacryma-jobi) are hard-shelled, woody seeds that grow in a natural teardrop shape.
They have their name in memory of the many tears shed by Job in Old Testament times.

St. Teresa of Calcutta

Job’s Tears grow wild in the ditches of tropical countries. Saint Teresa of Calcutta loved to pray with rosaries made from these seeds. She preferred them for their simplicity and humility. We can learn so much from the example of the saints.
