This is one of my favorites, and apparently I'm not alone in that thought!
Earth and Sea is an Anglican rosary made with azurite/malachite small beads, amazonite large beads, a green aventurine carved leaf, and finished with a staurolite fairy cross. It is hand-knotted on silk thread.
Crusaders took the idea of prayer beads from the Middle East back to Europe with them, and created the Catholic rosary. In the mid-1980's, the Rev. Lynn Bauman created a version for the Episcopalian church. This is the Anglican rosary.
More information about this type of rosary can be found at the site of King of Peace church.
