Abstract: A rosary includes a first section of a chain closed as a ring with five groups of beads divided in decades sliding freely thereon, the five groups of beads being spaced by a single bead that separates each group from the others; a second chain section connected to the first chain section and terminating with a crucifix, wherein the crucifix is divided in two parts and wherein, in proximity to each one of the two parts of the crucifix, there is at least one recess suited to house a part of the first ring-shaped chain section, so that when the two parts of the crucifix are joined in order to accommodate the part of the first ring-shaped chain section therein, the rosary assumes the shape of a bracelet.
