Shipped quickly. The blue dyed beads are not as brilliant and shiny blue as I imagined or pictured . Nevertheless, it’s made with love and that’s beautiful in itself. It was a birthday gift for a dear male friend who has a love for Mother Mary but does not know how to invoke her. I believe wholeheartedly this beautifully crafted weapon will bring him closer to Jesus through Mary: instilling hope, faith and love in a friend that has been trying to overcome challenges throughout his life.
