{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-mater-dei-rosary-center-with-shamrocks","title":"Vintage Bronze Mater Dei Rosary Center with Shamrocks","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Mater Dei Rosary Center sets a round medallion of the Virgin and Child between two full three-leaved shamrocks, each on its own stem and veined with the same care given to the figures. Mary bends her veiled head against the Child's cheek and he reaches up to her, an old and unfussy picture of the tenderness between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAround the rim runs the Latin \u003cstrong\u003eMATER DEI ORA PRO NOBIS\u003c\/strong\u003e, Mother of God, pray for us, one of the oldest petitions in the Church and the one the rosary repeats through every decade. The shamrocks mark this out as an Irish piece, where the three leaves on a single stem have stood for the Trinity since Patrick preached with one in his hand. The reverse of the medallion is left plain, with a band of fine texture across the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mater Dei rosary center 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":48943625142457,"sku":"3c3-1145-B","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1145-B.png?v=1787688775","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-mater-dei-rosary-center-with-shamrocks","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
