There are several ways of making rosaries. One of the most common is the “hooked” method, which
involves loops that are simply linked together. It looks like this:
As you can see, it’s very easy for these loops to bend or separate and work their way apart -- which
means you’re left with a broken rosary!
In the wire-wrapped method, which I use, the wire is wrapped around the loop several times and then
around the stone. This ensures that the loop will stay closed, meaning your rosary is practically
unbreakable!
Here’s an example of wire-wrapping. I did this rosary with red coral and sterling silver wire:
