{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-engraved-heart-milagro-with-flower","title":"Vintage Bronze Engraved Heart Milagro with Flower","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a milagro heart, the flat votive heart left at a shrine in thanks or in petition, with a flame-shaped foliate crest rising from its top. The face is engraved rather than modeled: a lily on a long stem and a leafy branch crossing the whole width of the heart in one sweeping line, with a cursive monogram cut near the point by the hand that left it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMilagros are the small metal offerings pinned to shrine walls and statues across Spain, Mexico and the American Southwest. A leg stands for a healing, a house for a home, and a heart for the whole of a life or the whole of a love. The surface between the engraved lines is left broad and softly polished, which is what gives the piece its quiet, worn character. Worn now, it carries the same meaning it did on the shrine wall: something asked for, or something given thanks for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe milagro heart 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":48943600730297,"sku":"3c3-1235-B","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1235-B.png?v=1787688767","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-engraved-heart-milagro-with-flower","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
