Description

This is the $45.00 down payment required for procurement of your custom order. The balance will be due upon order completion. A good faith estimate for the amount due upon completion is $xx.xx. (dependent upon individual order) This amount may be slightly higher due to current pricing of materials. If materials are purchased during a sale, the cost may be lower than anticipated. Once payment is submitted, it is a non-refundable deposit even if you cancel your order.

It usually takes two weeks from the time of your deposit for the completion of your order. I don’t always have all materials at hand. Sometimes suppliers that I use for beading components are short-handed and their shipments are delayed. I will do my absolute best to get your rosary to you as quickly as possible and will promptly notify you of any supplier or shipping delays. All orders will be shipped after final payment is made. VAT charges & import tax fees etc. are your responsibility. Submitting your $45.00 down payment is confirmation that you agree with these terms.

Quality Rosaries for Praying and Displaying!

Garden Path Rosaries™ carefully chooses every component to aid you in your prayer and meditation as if walking along a garden path deeply imbued with thoughts of the Triune God, His Angels and His Saints.

Inspired by my own prayer life and the search for God in every aspect of my life,

I began creating artisan rosaries and chaplets as a source of enhancing prayer beyond the rosary itself. Fulfilling those needs, the rosary became also a remembrance of the spiritual journey and specifically the present relationship and calling with Christ, His work, Our Lady, the Saints and their significance in my daily life. After having beads that gave personal meaning to my prayer life, I found myself going deeper into meditation with the very symbols the beads represented. In short, “looking at the beads” became a source of contemplation for me. I felt like others could benefit too, so I began creating rosaries inspired by my own prayer designs. I hope you enjoy praying them as much as I do!

ABOUT MY ARTISAN DESIGN STYLE:

The handmade rosary and chaplet designs of this shop are contemplative in nature. Because these pieces are religious works of art, they can also be displayed in the home as a visual source for meditation.

HOW ARE MY ROSARIES AND CHAPLETS MADE?

With much love!! I put a lot of thought into my designs. The metal components are solid untreated raw brass, unless otherwise stated. The religious Catholic rosary medals are made in the USA by a small Catholic family-owned business. They are machine cast from a type of yellow brass known as “Low Brass” because of their copper to zinc ratio, giving these pieces the look of 14k gold. Sometimes the brass is referred to as Nu-Gold or Jeweler’s Brass. They are finely polished with modern machinery for a bright gold brilliance. Because gold prices have risen extensively over the years, this is a way to get the gold look without the expense. I include a Sunshine brand polishing cloth with every order to keep your rosary looking new.

About the Construction of these Rosaries and Chaplets: I only use the strongest 49 strand cable wire marketed as professional beading wire. I also use raw brass wire guardians at my connections to further protect from friction and eliminate any fraying on the cable wire where it joins to the crucifix and rosary center. I double crimp the cable wire for added security. The solid brass jump rings are hand made in the USA by a fine gentlemen and are cut in such a way that they “click and join” when brushed together at closing. I temper these jump rings which actually strengthens and hardens them – keeping them locked tight and secure. I build my rosaries this way for free movement, i.e. keeping the stress off the crimps for lasting quality.

About the Heirloom Quality: I seldom use any base metal plated parts or silver, bronze or gold tone finishes anywhere on my rosaries unless stated in the description. If I do, I choose the highest quality materials. With most of my designs, there are no finishes to be worn off from daily use on bead caps, crimps, spacers, rings, loops etc. The metal parts are all brass. The beads used for these rosaries are usually made from high grade gemstone, Czech art glass, fine Austrian crystal or genuine vintage finds.

ABOUT GEMSTONE BEAD GRADING:

AAA – Completely Transparent but may include very slight inclusions or impurities upon closer inspection; Consistent coloring where applicable; uniform size

AA – Translucent but may include very slight inclusions or impurities upon closer inspection; Consistent coloring where applicable; uniform size

C – Opaque with rough spots, fissures, inconsistent color patterns; noticeable nonuniform sizing – usually not suited for rosary making, must be carefully inspected.

CLEANING YOUR ROSARY:

I include a Sunshine brand polishing cloth to be used on the raw brass components. The beads themselves can be wiped with a damp cloth then thoroughly dried. When hand cast bronze pieces are used or lacquered brass, they can be wiped with a damp cloth then thoroughly dried as well.

HOURS OF OPERATION:

Monday through Saturday. I do not ship, design, or answer emails & messages on Sundays

Privacy Policy

I do not collect, sell or store your data. Your mailing address and email are used for shipping purposes or to contact you concerning your order or replying to your direct messages in my Peter's Square mailbox only. At Garden Path Rosaries Shop, I never see your credit card number or method of payment as your transactions are all made on the Peter's Square Marketplace platform.

Terms and Conditions

Custom orders require a $45.00 non refundable deposit to secure the cost of beading materials and final production of your handcrafted rosary or Catholic jewelry. This amount will be deducted from your final balance which must be paid in full prior to your order being shipped.

The metal parts on my items are made with unsealed brass (except the Catholic religious or rosary medals, which have been hand lacquered to protect from patination). Untreated brass will quickly develop a patina, but can easily be polished with Collinite No.850 Metal Wax or the impregnated anti-tarnish Sunshine Cloth® included with your order.

Because gemstones and glass beads are prone to breakage when dropped on hard surfaces such as concrete, gravel, tile, asphalt etc. I offer no guarantees from breakage or misuse. No rosary is completely unbreakable, but some types of construction will last longer than others. Cable strung rosaries are highly rated for durability.

I recommend to always carry your rosary on your person in a case, either in a breast pocket, handbag, backpack etc when not in prayer. Around the neck or in the pocket of your favorite blue jeans without a case are not safe places for carrying any rosary. When not in use your rosary can be draped over a holy picture, hung on a wall or displayed out in the open for contemplating.

All of my products arrive gift-boxed with a satin ribbon tied bow.

Chaplets include a prayer brochure with instructions for ease of praying.
