AVE MARIA FLAMING SACRED HEART MEDAL



I was very fortunate to find this rare Ave Maria medal in high relief.

Ave Maria holds a Flaming Sacred Heart pierced by a sword ,which I believe, symbolizes her pain of the crucifixion. The heart radiates heavenly grace.

I've never seen a medal solely dedicated to Ave Maria as this one or one as detailed.

It is incredible!

Tiny Antique Holy Water Bottle And Filigree Ball Assemblage Necklace





See my newly listed assemblage necklace at http://www.etsy.com/shop/metalcorset?ref=si_shop

This one of a kind assemblage necklace was created by combining a tiny antique Holy water bottle with a crown top and an image of Ave Maria from an antique lace Holy card.

Inside the bottle are foil back paste chaton rhinestones and vintage faux pearls.

I hung it from an antique silver plated filigree ball necklace long enough to slip over the head.

The front of the antique Holy water bottle has a cross and the words, "Holy, Water," in raised glass.

It's hard to photograph but the image is much clearer and crisper in person.

The antique Holy water bottle including crown measures: 3.25".
