{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-winged-cherub-rosary-center-320","title":"Vintage Bronze Winged Cherub Rosary Center","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe whole of the Vintage Bronze Winged Cherub Rosary Center is a single winged head. A child’s face is modelled in full round relief, the hair curling back and the head turned slightly to one side, and beneath it a pair of feathered wings spreads the width of the piece, worked in rows of overlapping plumes that step down toward the tips. It is a surprising amount of sculpture for so small an object.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWinged heads belong to a very old visual tradition: the seraph shown as face and wings alone, because in that order of angels there is nothing to depict but adoration. They appear on tombs, altars and devotional metalwork from the Renaissance onward, and at the turn of a rosary the choice is a pointed one, putting an image of unbroken praise at the place where the prayer turns back on itself. The piece carries no lettering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis winged cherub 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":48943511601337,"sku":"3c3-320-B","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-320-B.png?v=1787688735","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-winged-cherub-rosary-center-320","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
