St. Cecilia Medal - Sterling Silver 1/2" Round Antique Replica Pendant

The charming antique sytle St. Cecilia Medal, measuring approximately 1/2 inch round, is expertly crafted from sterling silver for enduring elegance. This delightful small medal beautifully portrays St. Cecilia playing an organ, symbolizing one of her revered attributes in art. St. Cecilia, a young Roman woman, dedicated her virginity to God despite being compelled into marriage with a pagan man named Valerian by her parents. Remarkably, she not only converted her husband but also his brother to Christianity. The brothers, in turn, assisted others by providing proper burials for Christian martyrs, leading to their own martyrdom for this compassionate act. Cecilia, undeterred, had them interred in her villa and was subsequently arrested. Faced with the offer of pardon in exchange for sacrificing to pagan gods, she staunchly refused and embraced martyrdom for her unyielding faith. This sterling silver medal, part of the Rosa Mystica Collection, is cast from an antique original, preserving the intrinsic beauty and historical significance of the piece. Accompanied by a matching holy card and elegantly presented in an organza gift bag, this medal is thoughtfully prepared for meaningful gift-giving and proudly made in the USA. St. Cecilia, venerated as the patron saint of musicians, singers, composers, and poets, is celebrated through this exquisite medal. Embrace the spirit of artistry, devotion, and unwavering faith with the St. Cecilia Sterling Silver Medal.
