Product Details

The Vintage Bronze Our Lady of Boulogne Medal rewards a close look. The crowned Virgin sits with the Child aboard a medieval ship, a great sail hanging from the yard behind her, an angel bending to an oar on either side and waves running along the foot of the scene. It illustrates the old story of Boulogne-sur-Mer, where the Virgin's image is said to have come ashore in a boat with no crew aboard.

The reverse carries a crowned shield of fleurs-de-lis inside a ring of small flowers, with an interlaced Marian M at the foot and the shrine's name around the rim in Gothic minuscule: nostre-Dame-DE-BOVLONGNE, Our Lady of Boulogne. The archaic spelling, with a V standing in for the U, is part of the original's charm, and the shrine it names drew pilgrims, sailors and kings across northern France for centuries.

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
