Each medal is double-sided, enameled in vibrant colors, and over 50 years old—yet preserved in New Old Stock condition.

Elegant, symbolic, and deeply meaningful, this pendant blends fine craftsmanship with sacred heritage.


TL;DR – Why This Pendant Is Truly Special

  • Crafted in Vermeil (sterling silver with thick 24K gold plating)
  • Features 3 rare, double-sided vintage enameled medals
  • Over 50 years old – preserved in pristine New Old Stock condition
  • Includes optional 45 cm (18") Vermeil Figaro chain

  • One-of-a-kind piece from a private devotional collection

What Is Vermeil—and Why It Matters

Vermeil is sterling silver coated with a thick layer of gold—in this case, 24K gold plating. Unlike standard gold-plated jewelry, vermeil offers:

  • A rich, warm gold tone
  • Greater durability
  • A more luxurious finish
  • Fine jewelry quality at a refined value

This chandelier-style pendant combines the radiance of gold with the strength of sterling silver, ensuring longevity and heirloom appeal.


The Beauty of Vintage Religious Medals

Each of the three attached medals holds both artistic and spiritual significance.

1️⃣ New Old Stock – Over 50 Years Old

Though vintage, all medals remain in pristine condition. They are unused pieces preserved for decades, making them exceptionally rare.

2️⃣ Double-Sided & Fully Enameled

Every medal features detailed imagery on both recto and verso, finished with high-quality enamel in various rich colors—a rarity in vintage religious jewelry.

3️⃣ Rare Marian Representations

The medals depict:

  • Two representations of Our Lady of Lourdes
  • One representation of Our Lady of Ogy

These Marian devotions hold deep meaning for collectors and those devoted to the Blessed Virgin Mary.


A Chandelier Design with Presence

The pendant’s chandelier structure allows the three medals to hang gracefully, creating movement and dimension. The arrangement gives the piece:

  • Visual depth
  • Elegant balance
  • A refined, artistic silhouette

Whether worn daily as a devotional symbol or reserved for special occasions, it carries both beauty and reverence.


Optional Vermeil Chain Details

This pendant may be purchased with or without the chain.

If selected with chain:

  • Length: 45 cm / 18 inches
  • Style: Figaro
  • Material: Vermeil (sterling silver with 24K gold plate)
