Antique medal depicting the Virgin Mary in profile, made of silver with beautiful Art Nouveau floral reliefs, typical of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (circa 1900).
The asymmetrical design with wavy edges and plant motifs captures the organic and spiritual aesthetic of the French Belle Époque, where religious art merged with naturalistic and symbolic influences.
Perfect as a religious amulet, baptism or confirmation gift, or simply as a decorative collector's item. The reverse is plain, ideal for personalization with an engraving. A jewel with soul, history, and artistry.

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.
