The forward head is veiled; the second rises close behind it. A scrolled hood arches over the top, and the metal is cut away down both sides so the design floats free of its frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaired profiles are the long-standing way of showing the Son and his Mother together on rosary fittings, and European workshops used the arrangement throughout the nineteenth century. Shown this way, rather than back to back, the eye takes in both at once, which is close to what the Rosary itself does, contemplating the mysteries of Christ through the heart of Mary. There is no lettering; the whole effect is carried by the cut of the scrollwork in sterling silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sterling silver rosary center was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves the piece'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":48943496986809,"sku":"3c3-451-S","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-451-S.png?v=1787688728","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-sterling-silver-scrollwork-center-jesus-and-mary","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
