Chiastolite, or the cross stone,
is a brown variety of andalusite,
which contains a black cross.
The name 'Chiastolite' derives
from the Greek word 'chiastos'
meaning 'cross marked'. It has
been used since ancient times
for protection. Here
Chiastolite has been paired with
olive wood and a pewter cross,
both sourced from the Holy Land
to create a rosary that feels
warm and comfortable in the
hand. |
