{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-passion-rosary-center-heart-shaped","title":"Vintage Bronze Passion Rosary Center, Heart Shaped","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Passion Rosary Center is a small heart carrying a face on each side. One holds the Virgin, veiled and turned slightly aside with her head bowed, the Mother of Sorrows. The other holds the head of Christ facing forward under the crown of thorns, the hair falling heavily on either side. Both fill their little field almost to the edge, which is what gives so small a piece its force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pairing is the whole statement: mother and Son held on opposite sides of one heart, which is exactly how the sorrowful mysteries hold them. Simeon told Mary that a sword would pierce her own soul too, and the devotion to her sorrows has always understood her grief as bound up with his suffering rather than standing apart from it. A center like this belongs on a rosary prayed through the Passion, or on a set kept for Lent and Good Friday, where the images meet the prayers being said on the beads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Passion rosary center 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":48943441182905,"sku":"3c3-705-B","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-705-B.png?v=1787688714","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-passion-rosary-center-heart-shaped","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
