Around her the metal is pierced right through, so the pattern reads as line rather than mass: long scrolling stems, a fleur-like crest at the top, and sprays of little drooping bell flowers filling the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe whipping curves and the lily-of-the-valley bells belong to the art nouveau taste of the turn of the last century, when rosary mountings were made with real jeweller's ambition and the center was expected to be the finest thing on the strand. Teresa is a name the Church has given to its great teachers of prayer, and a rosary center is a fitting place for her: the point where the beads gather, where one decade ends and the next begins again. At an inch and three quarters the openwork keeps the piece light and lets the light through behind her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe St. Teresa rosary center was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtisan-cast from an antique original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Equatoria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48943618818233,"sku":"3c3-1177-B","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1177-B.png?v=1787688774","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-st-teresa-rosary-center-leaves-and-flowers","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
