{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-child-at-the-niche-medal","title":"Vintage Bronze Child at the Niche Medal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Child at the Niche Medal holds a small domestic scene. A child in a nightshirt kneels up on the bed, one arm reaching toward a lit arched niche set in the wall, a chair pushed close and the bedding falling away beneath. It is the sort of subject nineteenth-century makers used to speak to children directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reverse answers it: a single star at the upper left, casting one long ray down across a field of clouds. Read together, the two faces set a child's night prayer against a light that comes without words, the reaching hand on one side and the ray coming down on the other. Nothing is lettered on either face, and nothing needs to be. It makes a natural gift for a baptism, a first Communion, or a child who is afraid of the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis medal was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its 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":48943644311737,"sku":"3c3-1058-B","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1058-B.png?v=1787688780","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-child-at-the-niche-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
