One face carries the Holy Face of Jesus in deep relief, bearded, the head crowned with a fan of rays. The other shows a small crowned figure standing in the wide, bell-shaped vesting robe by which the Infant of Prague is always known. A pierced frame of six rounded lobes surrounds each side, so that the metal opens like a flower around the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pairing is an old devotional habit, the face of the suffering Christ on one hand and the royal Child on the other, the same Lord met at either end of his life. Devotion to the Holy Face grew from the cloth of Veronica, while the Infant of Prague comes from a small statue given to the Carmelites of Prague in 1628 and honored ever since as the child king who rules from his own house.\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":48943650865337,"sku":"3c3-1008-B","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1008-B.png?v=1787688784","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-holy-face-and-infant-of-prague-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
