Vintage Bronze Our Lady of Perpetual Help Medal
Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Our Lady of Perpetual Help Medal carries on its face the image the Eastern church calls the Mother of God. The Virgin holds her Son close, her veil crowned, while two small archangels hover in the upper corners with the instruments of the Passion in their hands and the Child turns his face up toward them, clasping his mother's hand.
The Greek letters ΜΡ ΘΥ beside her head abbreviate Meter Theou, Mother of God. It is a devotion of consolation, kept by those carrying a worry they cannot set down. The reverse is ringed with a Spanish legend, SEÑOR DE LA BUENA ESPERANZA TENED PIEDAD DE NOSOTROS, Lord of Good Hope, have mercy on us, set around a standing figure with arms opened in welcome. Greek lettering paired with a Spanish prayer is a combination at home in Spain and across Latin America.
The 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
