What is a Catholic necklace called?
1 Answer

A Catholic necklace is called a scapular. It is a brown piece of cloth string having two small squares of the same material — cloth, wood or paper that may bear religious imagery — on opposite ends of the circle of string. Devoted Catholics around the world wear scapular necklaces. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage scapular necklaces.
