Silver rosary with natural red coral beads, 1960s and 1970s
Out of stock
Vintage rosary crafted in silver with natural red coral beads. Dating from the 1960s and 1970s, a decade of aesthetic transition where tradition was reinterpreted with new sensibilities. This rosary stands out for the intensity of the red coral, its spherical shape, and its polished finish, carefully strung on silver wire with its original patina.
The cross, also made of silver, features a stylized, handcrafted design that reflects a freer and more expressive approach, very much in keeping with the artistic movements of the mid-20th century. The figure of Christ, with its geometric and simplified features, stands out in relief within a frame of irregular lines, evoking an almost brutalist aesthetic.
The central medallion of the rosary, with a cut-out motif in the form of a Marian emblem, complements the piece, providing visual balance. This rosary was conceived not only for prayer, but also as an object of intimate devotion and aesthetic expression.
An ideal piece for collectors of religious objects, lovers of handcrafted design, or those looking for jewelry with history and soul.
