Virgin Mary Medal – Art Nouveau Catholic Devotional Pendant
Virgin Mary Medal – Art Nouveau Catholic Devotional Pendant
A beautifully crafted vintage devotional medal featuring the Virgin Mary in profile, surrounded by an elegant floral composition inspired by the organic forms of the Art Nouveau period.
The finely modeled portrait shows Mary in a peaceful, prayerful attitude, with her hands held close to her heart. Delicate botanical elements frame the figure, creating a graceful and highly decorative composition.
The medal has a warm aged bronze/brass-toned appearance with natural patina and signs of age. Its unusual asymmetrical floral form gives it the distinctive character of an early 20th-century devotional object.
The reverse is unadorned, showing the natural aged surface of the original metal.
