Santa Fe Artisan -SHANE CASIAS - Hand Drilled Onyx Beaded- Carved Spiny Oyster Roses- Genuine Ruby Sacred Heart Cross- Long 52" Santa Fe Rosary
A PERSONAL NOTE:
Known for his "All things New Mexico", Shane's culturally strong New Mexico roots will always be reflected in his work, where he lives & breathes the spiritual art that is known to Santa Fe & throughout the state & it's no wonder why his religious art isn't so high in demand at our yearly Spanish Market event..Shane is widely known for his Sacred Heart-Our Lady jewelry, to his New Mexico Zia Jewelry but then turn around & give us the best skull jewelry you'll ever lay your eyes on! He designs with both Men & women in mind,by offering the most feminine to the most masculine!
THE ROSARY:
If you appreciate what the hands of artisans do,then you'll definitely appreciate this necklace! Being from the “Old School” where everything is still done by hand, this is an artist who would rather spend the time making it himself instead of buying ‘already made’ materials to make production go faster..
From hand drilling each & every one of the onyx beads that are now ready to put the sterling wire connectors through, to making all the jump rings that connect one wire connector to the other, this is a perfect example of what you're going to get from Shane! (This is reflected in price) Yes, it’s a time consuming process but this is why we at Plata de Santa Fe Jewelry love him!!
Called the "Santa Fe Rosary", this is made in a XXX long 52" length where the rosary is beautifully accented with 4 carved Spiny Oyster roses in the neckline & 2 in the 6" long center drop. Hanging at the bottom, is one of Shane's most popular crosses that has a genuine faceted Ruby that lays in the center of the Sacred Heart cross.. This is long enough where you'll slip it over the head.
Whether you want to bring or wear this to church or possibly wear it with your favorite outfit,you’l be wearing a necklace made by one of Santa Fe’s own, who gives you all the body, soul & heart of New Mexico!
** I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER ROSARY,BUT IN LAPIS THAT’S ACCENTED WITH HAND MADE STERLING BEADS AND A SACRED HEART CROSS (NO RUBY THOUGH) **-SO WATCH FOR THAT!!! (See last photo)
