.../ St Christopher protection pendant, old world prayer charm
A very thin worn bronze / copper tone metal medallion, double sided, with St Christopher on the one side and Mary our Mother on the other. The side with St Christopher carrying the child Christ across the river and the words " Behold St. Christopher then go your way in safety". The side with Mary showing the holy Virgin centrally placed on a hill, 2 men (they look like they are dressed in military uniform, the left one with a beret, the right one with a rangers hat) kneeling on either side of her, with the words "Mary our Mother protect our boys" on the border, which are in turn surrounded by a laurel wreath.
Condition: Beautifully age-worn with the raised areas a gleaming copper, the lower surfaces with what looks like a remnant of silver plating (slightly grey / silver)
Perfect as an individual pendant and a meaningful historical and religious good luck token. All my religious tokens are original vintage items (not reproductions) and will have age and handling-related wear, as they were carried and handled every day by the faithful. Please look carefully at the photographs so you can see the flaws and the beauty in these items.
Size: ca 1 inch diameter (2.6 cm)
