Hematite and Moonstone Rosary with Chainmail Cross
I made this for a special someone. His birthday was coming up. He seemed to like Hematite rosaries. Very wise of him because hematite gemstone is a stone that is ideal for meditation, prayers, forgiveness, and healing.
Materials Used:
- Hematite Beads – round, polished, 6mm
- Moonstone Beads – round, 6mm
- Wire & Jump Rings – silver plated over brass; lead & nickel free
Handmade Chainmail Cross
Around that time, I had been trying to figure out how to make different types of handmade crosses. I stumbled on the making of this during my experimentation phase.
This is a chainmail cross.
This chainmail cross retains its shape but is also very flexible. Quite fascinating to feel. Very suitable for a kinesthetic person.

Chainmail Rosary Center
I also made the rosary center with chainmail. This was adapted from the Japanese Flower chainmail technique. (I just did not join to form a closed round. This way, it can form a triangle instead.) The center is a washer. Nice ain’t it? 😉
