A masterpiece of devotion and artistry designed and crafted by the famed Ghirelli family in Italy, this Rosary honors the Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV. Every element carries profound symbolism, uniting prayer with the beauty of the Church’s tradition.
The crucifix presents Christ upheld by angels, with Bernini’s colonnade and St. Peter’s Basilica proclaiming the Church’s foundation on Christ and His Vicar. The Latin inscription “Tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram aedificabo Ecclesiam meam” recalls Christ’s entrustment of the Church to Peter.
The centerpiece features a finely detailed portrait of Pope Leo XIV on one side, and the Virgin Mary with St. Peter’s Basilica on the reverse, reminding the faithful of Mary’s protection over the Church and the mission of Peter’s successors.
White oval glass beads symbolize the papal vestments, while shaded yellow Our Father beads in mother-of-pearl effect recall the colors of Vatican City, the heart of Catholicism. Finished in antique silver, this gorgeous, moving and symbolic Rosary is a tangible sign of communion with the Church, and a powerful aid to prayer. Crafted in Italy.
