Rosary - Benedict XVI – Rosary personally donated by the...

ot a simple commemorative rosary, but an authentic papal gift, personally presented by Pope Benedict XVI during a private audience to an important figure visiting the Pontiff. It is precisely this provenance that makes the object particularly fascinating for the collector: a rosary that has been part of the Pontiff's ceremonial gift and that still preserves its elegant original white case with a golden papal coat of arms. The rosary is composed of refined ivory-colored pearl beads, linked by silvered metal elements, with a central medal bearing Benedict XVI's coat of arms and a finely wrought crucifix. The set is kept in exceptional condition, practically as good as new, and retains the strong aesthetic impact of an object that appears almost like a jewel. A piece destined for those who seek not only Vatican memorabilia, but an object directly connected to the person and pontificate of Joseph Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI from 2005 to 2013.
