Frustrated that they could not find a beautiful, unique rosaries for their sons' First Communions, artists Michelle McKenzie and Mary Stucko designed their first rosaries five years ago. They have been creating rosaries for other people ever since. All of their designs are handcrafted and are limited in quantity --many of them are one of a kind.
Their new jewelry line is in response to customer demand. The jewelry includes vintage pearls, Swarovski crystals and Czech glass paired with unique Catholic medals and crucifixes. The artists are inspired by the jewelry from today as well as from generations past. They have been known to turn to their mothers' and grandmothers' jewelry boxes for inspiration. New designs include a St. Therese necklace for everyday and an antique pearl necklace for evening. Every piece of jewelry includes a sterling silver or bronze saint medal or a crucifix.
