Toba Rosaries are a reflection of devotion.  It seems to reside within them.  Perhaps it is because they were made by hand--but by holding them one feels a part of something greater than oneself; a sense of groundedness; spiritual connectedness.  It is no wonder that many thought man originally molded from clay. We are quite fond of these.
