    Hello, I have recently come across several rosaries and am having a bit of trouble identifying some of these. Below is one such example. This set has, I beloeve, real blue pearls.

    A lot of the images I took are too big so pictiew are sorta sporadic. I'm sorry about that. Also I am unable to make out the writing on the back of the cross. If anyone has any information I would appreciate it!

    Thanks!

    They are fresh water pearls that have been dyed. Writing on the back is Russian. Think first word is Save; couldn't work out the second.

    cnaccu (pronounced "spasee") means "save"

    u (pronounced "ee") means "and"

    coxpaHuu (pronounced "sokhranee" means "protect"

    Pretty much standard inscription on Russian crosses.

    Great to know. No wonder I couldn't get it. Not knowing what it could be & muddy casting, thought the third letter was a d. Got some really interesting tries from IM Translator, including 'save scraps' & one I can't put here, but second word was 4 letters, also starting with s.
