How I Repaired The Rosary

The rosary had been lost for many months and was unexpectedly found in the drain of a washing machine. The customer wanted to restore the rosary to its original condition if possible, as it was a gift from her mother. The centerpiece had unfortunately tarnished beyond repair, so I created a custom made center using an Our Lady of Knock image which the original center depicted. The chain links had rusted and needed replacing, the green beads had become entangled with fibres and dust. So, I removed all of the chain links and restrung the whole rosary with new strong beading wire, I washed and air dried all of the green glass beads. I gave the Celtic cross a good hard polish and replaced all of the Our Father beads with new bead caps and Swarovski cream pearls. I think the end result was rather beautiful. The customer was very happy too!

Thin And Fraying Cotton Thread

Repair Rosary

How I Repaired The Rosary

The rosary had been created from thin cotton thread which had started to fray in several places, the beads had also become very loose. This needed replacing immediately before any beads would be lost. I replaced the thin thread with strong flexible beading wire and added a centerpiece to compliment the overall design. The rosary had also lost its crucifix, so I added a new one to the completed rosary and attached the existing Mary medal. I then gave the whole rosary a polish and sent them back within 10 days

Broken Wire and Missing Beads Repair Rosary

How I Repaired The Rosary

The rosary had a few missing beads among the design, and many broken links with lost chain. I used silver wire links and a sterling jump ring to reattach one of the charms so it matched the original patina of the rosary. The customer was happy with the 5mm gemstone beads I offered as a substitute, I then gave it a polish and sent it back within 10 days
