THE ROSARY
The Encyclical "Caritas in Veritate" traces, in the clear and profound style of the great Pontiff Benedict XVI, the true relationship between the human creature and creation. Ghirelli® draws inspiration from these teachings and presents for the first time a Rosary with Bohemian beads made from 100% certified recycled glass. A Rosary that gives a unique experience, a choice of care for the environment but always directed, first and foremost to the author of Life, in the unmistakable Ghirelli vision; beauty in every detail.

CRUCIFIX 
A design with the unmistakable Ghirelli Style in which the Crucifix, an expression of the Gospel passage from Jn. 15:1:8, combines elements of nature and the Spirit. Jesus uses a gift of the earth, the fruit of the Vine, for the Institution of the Holy Eucharist.
