Product Details

The Vintage Bronze Gloria Deo Nativity Medal works the whole Nativity into a gabled plaque no bigger than a thumbnail. The newborn Christ lies on straw at the foot while an angel bends low over him, wings drawn back, and a star breaks overhead with its rays streaming down the length of the arch.

Across the foot a raised banner is lettered GLORIA DEO, Glory to God, the opening of the song the angels sang over the fields at Bethlehem. The reverse carries a Jerusalem cross, the broad cross with a small crosslet set in each of its four quarters, worn for centuries by those who made the journey to the Holy Land. The original is French, and the two faces together make a piece as fitting for Christmas as for a pilgrimage.

The Nativity 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.

  • 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
