Vintage Bronze Seven Sorrows Heart Rosary Center
Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Seven Sorrows Heart Rosary Center gives itself entirely to one image. A heart rises smooth and full at the middle of a fan of fine rays, a small flame at its crown, and a ring of swords passes through it, the pommelled hilts projecting all the way around the outer edge and giving this small center an almost architectural profile.
The pierced heart is the emblem of Our Lady of Sorrows, and the swords, traditionally seven, stand for the seven griefs of her life, from Simeon's prophecy that a sword would pierce her own soul to the burial of her Son. To pray a rosary joined at such a center is to keep her sorrows in view through every decade, which is exactly what these old Servite devotions intended. In bronze the rays read warm and the hilts catch an antiqued finish deeply.
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
