Squirrel Vertebrae Rosary - Pendulum Necklace

Taupe Rosary Reliquary Necklace | Bone, Light & Victorian Omen

This talismanic necklace is strung in muted taupe Czech glass rosary beads—soft as weathered stone, luminous as dusk. Four ritual sections are meticulously wire-wrapped and beaded with ornate filigree cone beads, silver spacer beads, glowing orange rhinestone beads, and naturally preserved squirrel vertebrae, honoring foresight, movement, and the sacred continuity of life.

At its center rests a sterling silver–plated Victorian connector, a symbolic threshold where past and present converge. From this liminal gateway descends a final divination drop: a faceted crystal prism pendulum, catching and refracting light like captured prophecy.

Designed for versatility, this piece may be worn long as a traditional rosary, allowing the pendulum to fall as a ritual focal point, or double-wrapped around the neck for a closer, more intimate fit—transforming its energy from ceremonial to protective.
