A haloed child lies on a bed of straw with both arms flung wide open, and the great muzzle of the ox is lowered toward him from the right. No crib, no kings, no procession, only the child, the straw and the animal's warm breath, close enough to hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThose thrown-open arms carry the whole feeling of the feast: Christmas met as welcome rather than as pageant, and, in the shape of the outstretched arms, a quiet foreshadowing of what the child was born for. The reverse is filled with a burst of rays spreading edge to edge, a sunrise set behind the night the medal remembers, and a reminder that the feast is a beginning rather than a scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Joyous Nativity 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":48943644737721,"sku":"3c3-1036-B","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1036-B.png?v=1787688783","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-joyous-nativity-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
