This St. Catherine of Alexandria Medal - Sterling Silver 3/4" Round Antique Replica Pendant is a medal crafted in Sterling Silver with a round design. Featuring St. Catherine of Alexandria, it offers a meaningful way to keep this devotion close in daily life.
Our captivating antique style St. Catherine Medal, measuring just under 3/4 inch, is meticulously crafted from sterling silver for enduring beauty. This exquisite medal portrays St. Catherine holding a palm branch, symbolizing her martyr's death, while a sword, used in her martyrdom, rests over her right shoulder. Behind her, the spiked wheel, another instrument of her martyrdom, stands as an iconic symbol in art. St. Catherine, a Roman convert to Christianity, was a woman of intellect and courage. At the age of 18, during the persecutions of Emperor Maximus, she fearlessly debated a group of pagan philosophers. Astonishingly, her arguments led to the conversion of the philosophers to Christianity, and they, too, faced martyrdom. Subsequently, Catherine endured torture and imprisonment. The empress, intrigued by her, converted to Christianity and suffered martyrdom as well. Maximus ordered Catherine to be tortured on a spiked wheel, but miraculously, it fell apart when she touched it. She ultimately faced martyrdom through beheading. St. Catherine of Alexandria, revered as the patron saint of lawyers, nurses, apologists, teachers, librarians, mechanics, secretaries, schoolchildren, and girls, is commemorated through this sterling silver medal. Cast from an antique piece in the Rosa Mystica Collection, it preserves the beauty and history of the original. The medal is elegantly presented in an organza gift bag, making it a thoughtful and spiritually significant gift. Proudly made in the USA, this St. Catherine Sterling Silver Medal is a testament to faith, courage, and the enduring power of belief.
