Hi Pete and the others, ... Well, so the question is: is there any proof of the use of paternosters in late 10th or 11th? In which region? I couldn't find one...
... As far as I know, all that we have from that far back is documentary evidence. The earliest I know of is a rumor that St. Gertrude of Nivelles (d.659 I...

Everyone :) Thank you for the info. While I am a member of the SCA and have done paternoster research for my persona, I was interested in the Anglican rosary...
Your paternoster sounds lovely. What size are the beads, where did you get them, were they a good deal... What time period is your persona? Mine is from the...
Hello, I've found that the Griffin beading silk is very good - it comes in varying thicknesses (and colours) and is already threaded onto a needle for you! I...

Greetings, *Personal Opinion Alert* Personally, I despise that stuff! I tried using it ONCE, and ditched the project after only an inch. It has such a heavy...
Hi ... I've been reading the back messages, and in message 37 (July 2002) there is a large quote from the 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia which not only confirms...
... Well, personally, I haven’t looked into the historicity of the Godiva will – is it an authentic document, does it really exist or is it something the...
... Hello again, Well, in fairness, I can only speak of my own experience. I have strung 20-30 rosaries/paternosters per year over the past 3 years using...
... It doesn't really say very much about details, since I think that for "bequeathing" purposes, all that really mattered was the value of the "gems"...
I should mention that the Paternoster-row.org web address has been non-functional since the first of June, BTW -- the pages are still there at their alternate...
Hello, my name is Jackie I am new to this group. I have posted some photos in the photo album, and am trying to identify these beads for about 5 years. Does...

Hello all, Just joined as I am drawn to these little wonders that keep the hand (and mind?) busy. I learned in a beading/wire class to do a 'rosary turn' with...
I've seen that particular usage on jewelry that dates back to the Thetford treasure, which is 4th century Romano-Britain. Not sure of usage on rosaries though....
