The religious medal is made of antique silver and features a relief representation of the Virgin Mary, with clasped hands and a veil, surrounded by a floral frame with undulating lines, typical of the Art Nouveau style of the early 20th century.

The detailed design and natural patina indicate a handcrafted work, probably of French origin, created between 1900 and 1930.
These types of medals not only served a religious function, but also reflected the aesthetic tastes of their time: a period in which spirituality was expressed through soft and organic forms, influenced by the floral and naturalistic art of the Belle Époque.

Perfect for collectors of sacred art, lovers of vintage religious style, or as a meaningful gift.

Things you should know

What you are buying (important)

We sell antique and vintage items, not new or freshly manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, small losses, or variations typical of the passage of time. These characteristics are common in pieces with history and are part of their condition.

We recommend that you review the photographs carefully, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm any details before purchasing, please write to us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken with artificial light, so the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is a deciding factor for you, we can send you additional photographs taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the true tone.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces have a patina as a natural consequence of the passage of time. We do not remove it, as it may have taken decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the character and appearance of the piece.

If you decide to clean or polish a piece, do so with caution and keeping the material in mind. Improper cleaning can alter its surface, patina, appearance, and in some cases, its value. If you need guidance on cleaning a specific material, contact us and we will help you.
