C-scrolls and shell forms curl out from the shaft and swell at each arm end, and the corpus rests among them rather than against a flat ground. The center answers with a shield of the same curling forms closed around a smooth raised heart, left polished and unlettered so that it takes light differently from the textured scrolls around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRococo was the last European style that believed devotion could be delighted in, and this pair makes a small argument for that view, pressing shells, volutes and studied asymmetry into the service of the Passion and the Sacred Heart. The heart at the center of a rosary is the plainest possible statement of what all the ornament is for: love, sitting at the middle of it, uncomplicated by anything cast around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe crucifix and center were faithfully reproduced from antique originals and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves their 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":48943405269177,"sku":"3c3-SET17-B","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-SET17-B.png?v=1787688702","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-rococo-scrollwork-crucifix-and-heart-center","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
