A crowned figure stands under a rayed halo in the stiff, bell-shaped mantle of a dressed devotional statue, the embroidery of her robe worked out in tiny cast lines, while the frame around her breaks into scrolls, flowers and small winged angel heads, all cut clear through so that the piece is as much tracery as plaque.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA date is cast into the scrollwork at the foot, beginning \u003cstrong\u003e1693\u003c\/strong\u003e, and it belongs to the antique original from which this piece is reproduced. It places the design in the years when Spanish and Italian workshops were dressing their Virgins in ever wider robes and setting them in ever more elaborate glories, and when a medal was expected to be a small altarpiece. What you receive is a modern casting of that old design, hand-finished so the highlights fall where they did on the original.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Baroque Virgin medal was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves the medal's vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtisan-cast from an antique original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Equatoria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48943404941497,"sku":"3c3-882-B","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-882-B.png?v=1787688700","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-baroque-virgin-medal-with-angels","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
