Made in Italy

From a soul fed with beauty and family, deepened and matured in prayer, and rested in meaningful reflection and considerations, we create a world for ourselves that welcomes in the spiritual. Love is spiritual, not tangible in and of itself, but there are manifestations of it everywhere we turn, in a smile, a touch, an embrace. Let each link, each bead, each jewel, lead you to sense in your humanity what your soul already intuits.

On the banks of the River Po, in the province of Rovigo, between surprising nature and cultural wealth, lies this unique Maison.

Ghirelli is located on the border between Veneto and Emilia Romagna, and is a short walk from the medieval Ferrara, a city of art whose historic center is a World Heritage Site. Within it, the Ferrara Cathedral stands out the most, built starting from the 12th century, bearing the signs of all the historical eras the city has passed through. Also steps from Ghirelli is the Castello Estense, the majestic symbol of Ferrara with its four towers surrounded by a moat. 

"Among the castles, cathedrals, and historic cobblestone vias, we imagine and create the world's most beautiful and unique rosary."

- Ghirelli

It still begins in connection with God.

Ghirelli holds the mission of experiencing and spreading devotion through the rosary close to their hearts, as the filter through which they consider all other acts. From this vantage point, and after a time of prayer, they can examine fashion, jewelry, and manufacturing trends, updating their timeless treasures into today's trendsetters.

Envisioning, sketching, digital rendering, evaluation and testing. Each concept goes through rigorous design and performance phases. In the creation of the all new Magnificat Rosalet, each steel bracelet chain went through as many upgrades as necessary to ensure the utmost durability, and each bead of precious metal is selected and tested one by one, that the Magnifcat Rosalet will only become more beautiful and more enduring over time.

Using a combination of design technology and traditional medal-making methods, each component is cast in a mold with hot metal, and when cooled, removed and polished.

As not only a retail manufacturer, but also the largest rosary vendor in Italy, the capacity of our team to deliver large quantities at a level of excellence has been honed over many years, and is a point of distinction here at our Italian facilities.

Meticulous attention is put into each Ghirelli rosary, from casting to assembly and from enameling to packaging...each unique piece has myriad details that are cared for by our expert team.

Our team members feel like extended family to us, and some have been with us from the very beginning, helping us grow from a curious, heartfelt inspiration, into a thriving business that officially supplies brands, shrines, pilgrimage sites, and holy churches all over the world, with custom rosaries.

This can only be accomplished with steadfast and updated systems of manufacturing, assembly and delivery.
