Vintage Bronze Lily with Leaves Rosary Center
Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Lily with Leaves Rosary Center is built from two long trumpet lilies that curve toward one another and cross at the middle, their petals finely veined, with curled leaves and small buds filling the pierced border around them. The openwork is deep and the flowers stand well clear of the ground, so the piece catches light from several directions at once.
The lily is the oldest of the Marian flowers: the bloom Gabriel carries at the Annunciation, the stem that flowers in Saint Joseph's hand in nearly every image of him, the old shorthand for a purity that is received rather than achieved. A center made of lilies places that meaning at the join of the beads without a word of lettering anywhere on it. The sculptural depth makes it a natural match for a rosary of substantial beads.
The rosary center 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
