{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-small-monstrance-medal","title":"Vintage Bronze Small Monstrance Medal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Small Monstrance Medal is a monstrance rendered in miniature: a beaded circular window at the center with a cross inside it, a wide burst of rays and flame worked around it, and a knopped stem set on a stepped, fluted foot. Every part of the full-size vessel is there, reduced to an inch and modelled deeply enough to keep its shadows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe monstrance is the vessel in which the consecrated Host is exposed for adoration and carried in procession on Corpus Christi, and its shape is designed for one purpose, to let the Host be seen. That is why the rays surround it: the vessel is drawn as a sun, with the Blessed Sacrament at the center of the light. A medal in this form is a small token of eucharistic devotion, well suited to anyone who keeps a holy hour, belongs to an adoration society, or simply wants to carry a reminder of what waits in the tabernacle. The antiqued finish leaves the rays standing bright against the darker recesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe monstrance medal was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves the medal's 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":48943434793145,"sku":"3c3-748-B","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-748-B.png?v=1787688712","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-small-monstrance-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
