Greetings, all! I'm getting ready to assemble construction materials for my first Paternoster. I've got a question: Does anybody know if heat-treating...
Greetings! ... It was known! At least back to Roman times (Pliny mentions it in his book). I'd get you exact references, but I was in a horrible car accident...

Greetings all. Was feeling nostalgic the other day and decided I wanted to acquire a rosary "just like the one I got in CCD when I was a kid" (read: mid...
These sound very much like the kind given away as "mission rosaries". I know someone donated a large box of them for our last mission trip, but I'm not sure...
Hello all, I'm in a late 1580-1600 era Irish reinactment group, and I'm protraying a middle class Irish woman. Its been difficult to find any definite word on...
The Waterford Rosary is Irish, amber and was dated to the thirteenth century, I believe. There are pictures on the Yahoo groups site. In the process of...
OK, I found the article faster than I thought I would. It is at: www.ria.ie/publications/journals/ ProcCI/2000/PC00/PDF/100003CI.pdf The beads are glass and...
Thank you so much! This article/pdf was helpful in a number of ways, including naming a few more details about construction material of beads and other types...
... True. There's rather more variety in the forms of paternosters -- number of beads, arrangement, and so forth. But most of that is much earlier. The Council...
... Good question. If you have a local bead store, try asking them; at least for glass beads, they usually have a pretty good idea of what size thread goes...
I JUST asked this question last week at the local bead store. Specifically, I plunked down a bag of 8 mm carnelian beads and asked what to string them on, if...
It's been awfully quiet around here lately. What's everyone been up to? I'm currently trying to get a couple of new pieces done to send off to a conference I...
I just finished up a fair copy of the strand in the border of the Catherine of Cleves Book of Hours. Yes, I know that it may never have actually existed, but...
... Ooooooo, do we get to see pictures? <g> I have finally got the (jewelers' brass) metal parts to do one myself -- have had all the beads and other materials...
Greetings all! I keep seeing oblique references to a 13th century paternoster attributed to a member of the Knights Templar that had 10 decades 9 aves and 1...

I found myself facinated by bone bead rosaries. There was a great website about them but it seems to have disappeared. I have a sample of period left over bits...
Since Paternosters were Catholic and Rosicrucianism very definitely _isn't_, I would doubt there's a link there. Tammy ... Best I can guess on that is a link...
Hi, all. I've got my moderator hat on today. I understand that the quote by Bishop Tissier de Malluais is just someone's "signature line" tacked onto e-mail...
Dear friends. I was troubled when I read this quote. It sounded skewed so I started researching. All the churches in the quote are fairly modern churches being...
Hello all, I'm a newbie to your forum. I've just finished a 15 'decade' (8 beads per 'decade') rosary of Mediteranien Coral with Whitby Jet Aves on silk. It...
... Can't speak to your questions but: 1. How did you tie the cord and tassels; i.e. was the cord finger loop, tablet woven, luceted? 2. Where did you find the...
