The museum quality Seraphym Heirloom Rosaries, Unique Jewelry (in bronze and silver) and spectacular art were introduced in the US over 15 years ago. Artist and jewelry creator Arasely Rios will be at the exhibit personally. The components used to make each collection have biblical history and sacred qualities. Many are one of a kind! Bring your shopping bags — everything is for sale!
In 2015 Seraphym was commisioned to make a unique St. Serra rosary for Pope Francis. This unique design was given to him during his visit to the US for the canonization of St. Junipero Serra.
Seraphym Rosaries and Jewelry have a special sacred and angelic effect on the people who own them. Some say that they sleep better at night if they fall asleep with the Rosary in their hand. Many say that their devotion to prayer has found renewal, and yet for others these designs serve as a simple and beautiful reminder to pray.
Perhaps, it has something to do with the brilliant and colorful beads, or the special wing charm that is attached to every piece, or maybe, in its simplest form, it is the act of believing in your own prayers and dedicating time for sacred contemplation that makes Seraphym Heirloom Rosaries and Jewelry so special.
Arasely at the young age of 8, gathered wire, string and odd pearl beads that she had found in the back yard, designed three rings and wore them to school the next day. That was the start of her beading career. That very same year her parents left her in the care of a dear family friend named Paz who lived in Rose Hills, CA. for a few weeks while they traveled out of the country. Paz was a kind and gentle lady who dedicated her evenings to hand making rope and plastic bead rosaries for the missionaries at her church. Paz asked Arasely if she wanted to learn how to make them. Arasely immediately accepted, and they sat together every night during her stay. Years later, Arasely’s mother taught her a new technique for making Rosaries utilizing beads and wire. Arasely instantly fell in love with the art and began making Rosaries for her friends and family.
After you visit the spectacular show you'll take a journey around our 100 room mansion to search for secret doors, immersive rooms and unique exhibits. We have over 100 rooms and 70 secret doors (yes 80!). We guarantee you can see at least 60 of our legendary rooms — but be warned secret doors are tricky to find —if you find 2 or 3 you are an above average sleuth. We will never ruin the surprise of finding a secret door by giving you a map - or showing you where they are. So be sure to keep your eyes open! If you find two secret doors you are an above average sleuth! Join us on this thrilling journey of discovery!
