{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-openwork-madonna-medal","title":"Vintage Bronze Openwork Madonna Medal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Openwork Madonna Medal carries the veiled head of Our Lady in strict profile, her face calm and almost unmodelled, ringed by an octagonal border pierced into irregular faceted cells that open right through the metal. The veil falls in long plain folds and the disc behind the head is left smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNothing on the medal is lettered. It relies on outline and negative space instead, which is unusual in Marian medalwork and gives this small piece an architectural quality, like a rose window brought down to the size of a hand. The severity suits its subject: Mary shown without crown or ornament, known by the veil alone. It lies flat and shows the pierced border to full advantage, and the antiquing gathers in the cut edges so the frame keeps its depth as the piece is worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe medal 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":48943497216185,"sku":"3c3-449M-B","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-449M-B.png?v=1787688728","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-openwork-madonna-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
