Vintage Bronze Dove of the Holy Spirit Pendant
Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Dove of the Holy Spirit Pendant is a small dove in level flight, both wings swept out to full span and the head turned forward. The body is left smooth, the wings only lightly ridged, and the whole piece depends on its silhouette.
The dove is the oldest image of the Holy Spirit in Christian art, taken from the Baptism of the Lord, where the Spirit came down and rested on him in that form. By long habit it is also the image of peace, and of the soul at rest in God. A pendant this plain suits the subject, since there is nothing to distract from the shape of the wings, and its small scale makes it a natural gift at a confirmation or a baptism, where the Spirit is precisely what is being asked for. It sits quietly among the larger pieces in this collection.
The dove pendant was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
