Within the oval, a softly worn relief shows a bearded figure striding forward with his cloak thrown back and a small child carried at his shoulder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat is Saint Christopher, the ferryman of the old legend who carried a child across a swollen river and felt the weight of the whole world settle onto his back, and who learned at the far bank whom he had been carrying. His name means Christ-bearer. He is still the saint invoked for safe travel, which is why his image is the one so many people keep with them on the road. The piece carries no lettering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Saint Christopher 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":48943517991097,"sku":"3c3-294-B","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-294-B.png?v=1787688737","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-saint-christopher-heart-rosary-center","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
