Yellow gold Praying Virgin medal

Held in place by a small oval-shaped clasp, this not-quite-round medal signed by Arthus Bertrand is called a "pebble". Depicting the Virgin Mary in profile with her hands clasped in a prayerful position, with a halo, this medal is the perfect piece of jewelry to be offered at a baptism or communion.

For the record

The medal depicting the Virgin, a symbol of protection and maternal love, is one of the most popular medals given at baptisms. Generally engraved with the child's first name, it is traditionally offered by the godfather or godmother, and has a strong sentimental value. Accompanying the child throughout his or her life, it is a piece of jewelry that creates an unbreakable bond between you and the child.

Jeweller's word

We really like the originality of this medal with its irregular edges, which stands out from the more traditional round medals. With its small 16mm diameter and reasonable weight of 1.40 grams, it's an easy-to-wear pendant for a toddler.
