Product Details
Barely half an inch across, the Vintage Yellow Bronze Little Ave Maria Crown Rosary Center still holds two ideas at once. Interlaced scrolls form a small shield whose strapwork reads as an A and an M, the monogram of Ave Maria, and above it sits a fluted crown, the crown of the Queen of Heaven. The warm yellow bronze catches in the piercing, so light passes behind the letters.
The interlaced cipher is one of the oldest Marian devices in Christian art, worked into rosaries, banners and vestments for centuries because it carries the first two words of the Hail Mary without an image or a line of text. The crown names her as she is hailed at the close of the rosary, crowned in the fifth glorious mystery. Centers this small were made for delicate rosaries where a larger one would sit heavily, which suits a child's set or a fine strand.
The rosary center was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
