This Our Lady of La Salette medal is a beautifully detailed and devotional piece, measuring 1 inch (approximately 25 mm) in height. It is an exact replica of an antique or vintage medal, carefully recreated to honor its original sacred beauty and profound spiritual meaning. Available in sterling silver or gold bronze, this medal offers a timeless expression of Marian devotion and heavenly consolation.
The front of the Our Lady of La Salette medallion features the Virgin Mary as she appeared to two children, Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat, at La Salette, France, in 1846. Mary is shown seated, weeping with her face hidden in her hands, symbolizing her sorrow over the sins of humanity. The children are depicted standing reverently before her, receiving her message of penance, prayer, and conversion. A delicate scalloped border frames the image, with the inscription "O VIERGE RECONCILIATRICE DE LA SALETTE P.P.N." meaning "O Virgin Reconciler of La Salette, pray for us."
The reverse of the Our Lady of La Salette medal shows another scene of the apparition, with Mary speaking tenderly to the kneeling children, framed by the inscription "O VIERGE PLEURANTE DE LA SALETTE P.P.N." meaning "O Weeping Virgin of La Salette, pray for us."
The design of the Our Lady of La Salette medal reflects the French Romantic and late 19th-century devotional art styles, notable for their delicate relief, emotional expression, and attention to the tender encounter between heaven and earth. The soft lines and scalloped border enhance the sense of grace and solemnity.
Our Lady of La Salette is venerated as the patroness of those who seek reconciliation, penance, and healing from sorrow and sin. Her message calls the faithful to return to God through prayer, respect for the sacred, and compassion toward others. The shrine of La Salette remains a place of pilgrimage and miracles to this day, and the devotion continues to inspire the hearts of believers worldwide.
Each Our Lady of La Salette medal is expertly cast to preserve the intricate features and profound spiritual symbolism of the original design. It is ideal for those devoted to Marian apparitions, those seeking comfort in sorrow, or anyone wishing to live a life of deeper faith and repentance.
The Our Lady of La Salette medal remains a cherished symbol of Mary's love, her call to repentance, and the hope of reconciliation with God.
