Child's Antique French Rosary with White Beads

This pretty small Our Lady of Salette antique French rosary has round glass beads perfect for little hands. It's a sweet childs rosary. The opaque glass beads make a lovely soft sound as you roll them through your fingers. To me it's the 1/2" wide heart or center that makes this small French rosary so appropriate for a child...it shows Our Lady of Salette one of the Marian apparitions reported by two children, Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat (called Mathieu) to have occurred at La Salette-Fallavaux, France, in 1846. These vintage children's prayer beads measures 13- 1/4" long, the highly detailed Art Deco crucifix is 1" long x 3/4" wide - Ref 1189W.
