    • Sisters of Carmel for wire rosaries, ruggedrosaries for cord ones. Then get your crucifix from somewhere else. I like https://www.stjudeshop.com/ for crucifixes I got my St. Benedict crucifix from there and has held up great

    Honestly the most durable rosaries I have are just the cheap ones with plastic beads and string or rope. I have bad luck with rosaries made with the metal chain links or whatever. I would go with something rope.
    Yeah, that's why I'm leaning more towards a cord rosary, either like Stubborn suggested, or some other examples people have posted. My sister bought me an old chain one with wood beads a while ago, and the link came undone after first use so I haven't touched it since as it seems to be quite delicate.

    One would think the "battle beads" would hold up, but, I guess not if used daily.

    • Great rosaries. American made with parts from USA, Italy, Brazil, Philippines. Lifetime guarantee. They replaced a wooden bead that cracked asap and paid for shipping. I pray 15 mysteries on it every day.

    • I've bought about 10 nylon rosaries.

    They don't make noise, so it is easy to lose one in a pocket, but then again, I haven't managed to damage one yet by having it in the washing machine when its left in a pocket.

    You're selling me on the investment, especially since it's going to a family business.

    • I found what looks like a durable chain-type rosary on eBay. 

    Handmade Olive wood Rosary

    From this shop

    Olive Orchard Rosaries

    They do have other beads such as glass and stone. I don’t have one, but they do look durable and I just may buy one.
