Unlike a standard five-decade rosary, this chaplet follows the seven sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary, with a silver relief medal marking each sorrow and a large \u003cstrong\u003eOur Lady of Sorrows oval pendant\u003c\/strong\u003e at the end. At \u003cstrong\u003e20 in (51 cm)\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e0.9 oz (25 g)\u003c\/strong\u003e, with \u003cstrong\u003e0.23 in (6 mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e beads, it is a deeply Marian prayer chaplet with a gentle rose fragrance and a strong devotional identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eSeven Sorrows Chaplet Structure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSeven Sorrows Chaplet\u003c\/strong\u003e is prayed differently from a standard Catholic rosary. Instead of five decades, it is arranged in \u003cstrong\u003eseven groups of seven beads\u003c\/strong\u003e, each group meditating on one sorrow of Our Lady: Simeon's prophecy, the Flight into Egypt, the Loss of the Child Jesus, Mary meeting Jesus on the Way of the Cross, the Crucifixion, the Descent from the Cross, and the Burial of Jesus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the seven mystery positions is marked by a small silver-tone relief medal showing a different sorrowful scene. These scene medals turn the chaplet itself into a visual sequence of Marian meditation, guiding the prayer through the suffering of Mary in union with the Passion of Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eRose-Scented Red Wood Beads\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ered wood beads\u003c\/strong\u003e carry a warm crimson-burgundy tone with a matte finish and subtle visible grain. Their rose scent gives this chaplet a sensory quality that sets it apart from standard rosary beads, especially during slow, meditative prayer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rose has long been one of the central symbols of Our Lady in Catholic devotion, and the rosary itself has often been understood as a garland of roses offered in prayer. Here, that Marian connection is present not only in the devotion but also in the material experience of the chaplet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eOur Lady of Sorrows Pendant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chaplet ends with a large silver-tone \u003cstrong\u003eOur Lady of Sorrows medal\u003c\/strong\u003e. The front shows the Virgin Mary with a sword piercing her heart, the traditional image drawn from Simeon's prophecy: \u003cem\u003ea sword shall pierce your own soul also\u003c\/em\u003e. The reverse carries the Crucifixion scene, with figures gathered at the foot of the Cross.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis double-sided pendant completes the devotional meaning of the chaplet: Mary's sorrow and Christ's Passion held together in one object of prayer. There is no crucifix pendant here because the chaplet is structured around the Seven Sorrows devotion and closes with the image of Our Lady herself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eCatholic Gifts \u0026amp; Marian Devotion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eOur Lady of Sorrows Chaplet\u003c\/strong\u003e makes a meaningful \u003cstrong\u003eCatholic gift\u003c\/strong\u003e for the feast of Our Lady of Sorrows on \u003cem\u003eSeptember 15\u003c\/em\u003e, Good Friday, Lent, Marian feast days, hospital visits, grief, loss, serious illness, or anyone drawn to deeper Marian prayer. It is also fitting for those who specifically pray the \u003cstrong\u003eServite Rosary\u003c\/strong\u003e or have a devotion to the Seven Sorrows of Mary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rose-scented wood, seven scene medals, and Our Lady of Sorrows pendant make this a distinctive \u003cstrong\u003eMarian devotional gift\u003c\/strong\u003e and a traditional set of \u003cstrong\u003eCatholic prayer beads\u003c\/strong\u003e for meditation on suffering, compassion, and trust in God. Each chaplet arrives in presentation packaging and may be brought to a priest for blessing before devotional use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the wood beads gently with a dry cloth. Avoid prolonged immersion in water, perfumes, oils, and household chemicals, as moisture may affect both the wood and the rose scent over time. Store in the pouch or box provided when not in use to help preserve the fragrance and protect the metal medals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Piece of Holy Land","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43098736033964,"sku":null,"price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/0784\/8620\/files\/our-lady-of-sorrows-rose-chaplet-2.jpg?v=1784788451","url":"https:\/\/www.pieceofholyland.com\/products\/our-lady-of-sorrows-chaplet","provider":"Piece of Holy Land","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
