{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-sacred-heart-of-jesus-arched-center","title":"Vintage Bronze Sacred Heart of Jesus Arched Center","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Sacred Heart of Jesus Arched Center is built like a small chapel window. An arch rises across the top of the panel, long sprays of foliage run down each side like columns, and within stands Christ half-length and bearded, a broad nimbus behind the head. His hands come together at the breast over a flaming heart surmounted by a cross, so the gesture of presenting the heart becomes the whole architecture of the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Gothic arch and the flanking foliage place the antique original in the revival years of the later nineteenth century, when devotional metalwork borrowed freely from church building. The effect is deliberate: what is carried is a shrine rather than a portrait, and the figure inside stands where a saint would stand in stone above a door. The heart he holds out, crowned by the cross, is the devotion in a single gesture, love shown and love proved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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":48943518122169,"sku":"3c3-287-B","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-287-B.png?v=1787688739","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-sacred-heart-of-jesus-arched-center","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
