2" Sacred Heart of Jesus Medal (50 mm) – Exact Replica in Sterling Silver or Gold Bronze

This striking Sacred Heart of Jesus medal measures approximately 2 inches (50 mm) in diameter and is an exact replica of an antique or vintage medallion. Available in sterling silver and gold bronze, it faithfully preserves the intricate craftsmanship and spiritual depth of the original piece.

The front of the medal features a radiant image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, depicted with one hand pointing to His heart and the other raised in blessing. The Sacred Heart is clearly visible, encircled with thorns and surmounted by a cross, symbolizing Christ’s divine love, sacrifice, and mercy for humanity. The facial expression is serene and compassionate, offering a visual prayer of tenderness and hope. Surrounding the central image is a stunning ornamental border of delicate scrollwork and bead accents, forming a scalloped and filigreed frame that evokes the Spanish Colonial and Baroque Revival styles prevalent in devotional art of the 18th and 19th centuries.

The elaborate border, with its curled designs and small bead finials, gives the medal an appearance of sacred jewelry, making it both a spiritual emblem and a decorative piece of art.

This Sacred Heart medallion is ideal for use as a necklace pendant, a central piece for a rosary, a devotional altar adornment, or a special gift for religious milestones such as confirmations, anniversaries, or feast days. It can also be incorporated into sacred jewelry designs, religious art projects, or worn as a symbol of personal consecration to the Sacred Heart.

The devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus became widely popular following the apparitions to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque in the 17th century and continues to be a central devotion in Catholic spirituality, symbolizing Jesus' infinite love and the call for reparation, trust, and surrender.

Each Sacred Heart of Jesus medal is cast with meticulous attention to detail, preserving the profound symbolism and artistry of the original design, making it a timeless treasure for collectors, artisans, and the faithful alike.
