Product Details

Two beloved images of Christ meet on this medal. One face carries the Holy Face of Jesus in deep relief, bearded, the head crowned with a fan of rays. The other shows a small crowned figure standing in the wide, bell-shaped vesting robe by which the Infant of Prague is always known. A pierced frame of six rounded lobes surrounds each side, so that the metal opens like a flower around the image.

The pairing is an old devotional habit, the face of the suffering Christ on one hand and the royal Child on the other, the same Lord met at either end of his life. Devotion to the Holy Face grew from the cloth of Veronica, while the Infant of Prague comes from a small statue given to the Carmelites of Prague in 1628 and honored ever since as the child king who rules from his own house.

This 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.

  • 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
