This mini-ladder rosary was a Christmas gift for my dad who loves the colors red and black. He specifically asked for a ladder rosary, and while I made a mistake in buying a mini-version (thinking that it would be easier to carry it around in his pocket than a regular-sized ladder rosary), it turned out a bit too small, as his fingers are too big for the beads. However, as you can imagine, the rosary will not go to waste, by any means! This rosary features wonderful craftsmanship, is very rugged, and is highly recommended for someone with small fingers!
