<p>[QUOTE="Lizzie, post: 9771393, member: 2027"]Thanks evelyb30. I stand corrected. I went back and search again (have no clue where I read two beads, maybe there are two prayers), and apparently the bead separating the decades is generally a larger bead. This could have been originally a rosary as it does have the 5 decades. If it has been converted to a necklace the clasp was placed where the crucifix should be hanging. Otherwise the placement of the center decade is wrong. The beads are all the same size. Obviously I just don't know. I have seen older Czech necklaces with these same type of beads and bead caps. It is a puzzle for sure. </p><p><br /></p><p>Disclaimer, as you can tell I am not a Catholic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
