Our Lady appears in profile within a raised central roundel, veiled and looking down, a plain disc halo behind her. Around that portrait the field opens into a six-pointed star of beaded bands studded with small domed bosses, all of it held by a smooth outer rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile is what makes it unusual. Most Marian medals face her forward; here the modelling is portrait-like, the way a French medallist of the period would cut a head, and the beaded star gives that quiet face a setting rather than a frame. The effect is closer to a rose window than to an ordinary devotional medal, and the French original it follows was made for people who wanted both at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Virgin in Profile 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":48943467102393,"sku":"3c3-575-B","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-575-B.png?v=1787688724","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-virgin-in-profile-medal-french","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
