The front carries a monstrance with a rayed luna marked by a cross, standing on a spreading foot, with full-blown roses worked into the arms of the cross-shaped field. The reverse holds a standing haloed figure of Christ, his hands drawn to the breast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA banner across the base reads \u003cem\u003eO SALUTARIS HOSTIA\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eO saving Victim\u003c\/em\u003e, the opening of the hymn sung at Benediction as the monstrance is raised. Beneath the figure on the reverse runs \u003cem\u003eECCE PANIS ANGELORUM\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eBehold the Bread of Angels\u003c\/em\u003e, from the \u003cem\u003eLauda Sion\u003c\/em\u003e sequence of Corpus Christi. Together the two inscriptions make this a medal for anyone whose prayer centers on the Eucharist, and the roses soften a design that might otherwise be severe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe monstrance 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":48943443017913,"sku":"3c3-655-B","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-655-B.png?v=1787688715","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-o-salutaris-hostia-monstrance-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
