Each of the four arms swells into a broad cusped terminal stamped with a lozenge and a small scroll, and at the crossing a heart stands proud of the surface in high relief, crowned by a spray of flame with a single open flower at its top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSacred Heart\u003c\/strong\u003e set at the center of a cross is a favorite pairing in Mexican folk metalwork: the instrument of the Passion and the love that accepted it, shown together in one object. The flame is the burning charity of that heart, and the flower is what comes of it. This casting keeps the slightly uneven edges of the original, and the antiqued finish lets the heart and the flame read clearly against the darker arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cross was faithfully reproduced from an antique Mexican 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":48943644639417,"sku":"3c3-1048-B","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1048-B.png?v=1787688782","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-mexican-sacred-heart-cross","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
