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. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.

If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
