The Virgin stands on the globe with the serpent underfoot, rays falling from her open hands, small stars scattered across the field, the French invocation running the border and 1830 at the point. The other face shows a seated woman teaching a young girl from an open book, a winged cherub head beneath them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe border reads \u003cem\u003eO MARIE CONCUE SANS PECHE PRIEZ POUR NOUS\u003c\/em\u003e, O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us, the words Catherine Labouré was shown in the chapel on the Rue du Bac in Paris in that year. Conceived without sin is the whole of the doctrine in four words, and the serpent beneath her foot is the promise it rests on. The 1830 belongs to the apparitions and to the first medals struck from them. The lesson on the reverse is the other half of a French devotional life: faith taught at close range, one child at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis marquise 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":48943580774585,"sku":"3c3-1340-B","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1340-B.png?v=1787688760","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-immaculate-conception-marquise-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
