Its wings sweep down and outward, the tail trails below, and a burst of pointed rays rises behind the head, so the whole piece reads as motion downward toward the one who holds it. The plumage is cut in long incised strokes, with a raised boss marking the breast and each wing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the oldest image the Church has for the Holy Spirit, taken from the account of the Lord's baptism in the Jordan, where the Spirit came down upon him in the form of a dove. Set where the decades of a rosary meet, it stands at the point where the mysteries turn, a reminder of the Spirit who is asked at the start of every prayer to come. It makes a natural choice for a Confirmation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe descending dove center was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves the piece'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":48943518187705,"sku":"3c3-301-B","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-301-B.png?v=1787688737","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-descending-dove-of-the-holy-spirit-center","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
