Italian rosary with mint green beads and crucifix

A vintage rosary with mint green beads and a sleekly designed crucifix with a shiny finish.

The beads are made of plastic and have a soft greenish-blue hue characteristic of rosaries from the 1960s and 1970s. The cross and the medal are crafted from a light metal alloy with a chrome-like finish, creating a bright contrast with the beads.

The back of the cross is marked “Italy”, indicating production in Italy, long the center of Catholic devotional objects.

The medal depicts the Sacred Heart of Jesus and is executed in a finer and sleeker style than older variants.

A well-kept and decorative piece with a fresh look, fitting within vintage religious objects from the second half of the 20th century.
