She is invoked by travellers — drivers, pilgrims, anyone setting out — and pieces under this title were carried on French roads all through the last century, at the start of a journey and again at the end of it. The tenderness of the pose is the point: the mother turning toward her child is what the traveller is asked to keep in mind, and to come home to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Notre-Dame de la Route button 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":48943618982073,"sku":"3c3-1186-B","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1186-B.png?v=1787688772","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-our-lady-of-the-road-button","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
