The reverse carries the Crucifixion: a haloed woman standing at the left of the cross, a haloed disciple at the right, and a third figure kneeling at its foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe swords come from Simeon, who told Mary in the temple that a sword would pierce her own soul, and Catholic devotion has counted seven such sorrows across her life, from the flight into Egypt to the burial of her Son. She is honoured under this title by anyone carrying a grief of their own, because the Mother of Sorrows is understood to have gone the whole way through it first. Read together, the two faces set her grief beside its cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe medal 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":48943466578105,"sku":"3c3-597M-YB","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-597M-YB.png?v=1787688722","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-yellow-bronze-our-lady-of-sorrows-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
