It is a pastoral scene rather than a formal holy image, the kind Spanish workshops made as a keepsake for a child.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reverse tells you who it was for. Around the rim runs the name \u003cstrong\u003eLUISA MARIA VIDAL DOMINGUEZ\u003c\/strong\u003e, and across the middle, between small cast flowers, the date \u003cstrong\u003e2 DE MAYO 1901\u003c\/strong\u003e — the second of May, 1901. A baptism, a first communion, a name day: the medal was made for one named child on one named day, and that is exactly what makes it worth reproducing. Behind the boy stands the oldest image of all, the shepherd who keeps the flock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Little Shepherd 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":48943619178681,"sku":"3c3-1164-B","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1164-B.png?v=1787688773","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-little-shepherd-medal-dated-1901","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
