Each one is 0.3 inches, just the right size to move through your fingers during prayer without thinking about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's 21.2 inches total, with a Saint Benedict center medal and a silver-tone crucifix that's decent enough to feel real. Not flimsy. The kind of rosary you'd actually use every day, not just leave in a drawer.
