Product Details

The Vintage Bronze Sacred Heart and Help of Christians Medal is a large shaped cartouche with flowering sprays at the corners and a bank of cloud at the foot. One face shows Christ half-length, crowned with thorns and haloed, one hand raised and the flaming heart on his breast, with COR JESUS lettered in a curve above him. The other shows Mary crowned, holding the crowned Christ Child, beneath the words AUXILIUM CHRISTIANORUM.

The two titles are Heart of Jesus and Help of Christians. The second is an ancient invocation from the Litany of Loreto, given new life when Pius VII set a feast under that title after his release from captivity, and taken up afterwards by the Marian confraternities and by Don Bosco, who raised his great church in Turin to Mary Help of Christians. The two faces together make a single prayer: the love of the Son, and the help of his Mother.

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
