Natural wood beads are used for the rows of 7 beads and the invitatory bead is a faceted black glass bead. The larger cruciform beads are silver metal rectangle Tibetan style beads, and the pretty cross is a silver metal.
What the Beads Mean: The first bead above the cross is the invitatory bead. It is to invite God into your circle of prayer. Above the invitatory bead is the recently added resurrection bead which reminds us that Christ lives within us. The four large beads in the circle are cruciform beads which forms a cross when imaginary lines are drawn from each bead. The seven beads in between represent the seven days of creation.
Size: Length from top of circle to the bottom of the cross is 8.5”. The Cross is 1.75 "
Bead sizes range from seed beads to 12mm.

In the morning you will think of Him first. You can just hold them in times of sickness and stress to remind you that you are not alone.
