The Francis

£24.99

A plain paracord rosary with a Good Shepherd cross — made to be carried, not kept in a drawer.

Pope Francis never swapped his plain cross for a gold one. That’s the whole idea behind this rosary: nothing on it that isn’t doing a job.

Oval beads, paracord cord, a Good Shepherd cross, and no centre medal — fourteen knots instead of eleven, which keeps the line of it unbroken.

It’s tied with a finger’s width of give rather than pulled tight. The beads slide under your thumb as you pray, and they stay where you left them when you set it down — so you can put it on the table halfway through a decade and pick up exactly where you were.

Made by hand, a few at a time.

Choose your colour

  • Ivory — pale, warm, shows its age the way a prayer book does

  • Black — plainer still; the one to pick if you’d rather it disappear in the hand

What you get

  • Handmade paracord rosary, Good Shepherd cross

  • Oval beads, ivory or black

  • Knotted with slide — no centre medal, fourteen knots

  • Made and posted from Durham

Only 5 of each available.
