READER CALL-OUT: ROSARY BEADS

3/4/2025

These vintage Rosary beads are my favorite and are made of Baltic amber. My grandparents were from Lithuania and many of the amber Rosaries made there now have a plain amber cross instead of a crucifix. So, I was very happy to find these Rosary beads with the metal crucifix at the Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture gift shop in Chicago.
