Product Details

The Vintage Bronze Our Lady of Loreto Medal joins two images that belong together only in this devotion. On the front the crowned Virgin and Child are seated above a small house with a tiled roof and shuttered windows, angels kneeling at either side to carry it. On the reverse a propeller aeroplane banks low over a patchwork of fields.

The house is the Holy House of Loreto, the walls of Nazareth where the angel greeted Mary, carried through the air by angels to the Italian coast according to the old tradition. Because of that flight Our Lady of Loreto was named patroness of aviators by Benedict XV in 1920, and pilots and air crews have asked her protection ever since. The original of this medal was plainly made to be carried by someone who flew.

The Loreto 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.

  • Made in the USA
  • Artisan-cast from an antique original
  • Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
  • Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
  • Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
  • Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
