1 3/4" St Michael Antique Medallion ME1052

1 3/4" St Michael Medal (44 mm) – Antique Replica in Sterling Silver or Gold Bronze

This St Michael medal is a rare and profoundly symbolic devotional piece, measuring 1 3/4 inches (approximately 44 mm) in height. It is an exact replica of an antique medal, carefully recreated to preserve the sacred style and powerful imagery of early Christian art. Available in sterling silver or gold bronze, this medal is a timeless expression of divine protection and spiritual strength.

The front of the St Michael medallion features a stylized depiction of Saint Michael the Archangel, rendered in a form reminiscent of early medieval and Romanesque sacred art. Saint Michael stands in a commanding posture, holding a staff or spear in his right hand and a shield marked with a cross in his left. His figure is framed by simplified, openwork angelic wings and a nimbus halo, emphasizing his heavenly mission. The design focuses on sacred symbolism rather than naturalistic detail, conveying the eternal authority and spiritual light of the Archangel.

The reverse of the St Michael medal mirrors the front in style, with the flowing lines of the robe and wings visible from behind, maintaining the pure and solemn form that characterizes medieval religious representations.

The design of the St Michael medal reflects the artistic traditions of early Christian and Romanesque art (8th to 12th centuries), where sacred figures were portrayed with elongated forms, formalized gestures, and an emphasis on divine rather than earthly realities. The openwork technique and simple, powerful lines reinforce the spiritual dignity and celestial nature of Saint Michael.

Saint Michael the Archangel is venerated as the patron saint of soldiers, police officers, first responders, and all those who battle evil and injustice. He is the defender of the Church, the protector of souls at the moment of death, and the leader of the heavenly armies in the battle against darkness.

The St Michael medallion can be worn as a pendant, used as a protective sacramental, placed in homes or vehicles for spiritual safeguarding, or given as a meaningful gift to those facing personal battles, both physical and spiritual.

Each St Michael medal is carefully cast to preserve the sacred beauty, ancient symbolism, and profound strength of the original design. It is ideal for daily devotion, consecration to Saint Michael, or as a noble and powerful emblem of protection.

The St Michael medal remains a cherished symbol of divine defense, heavenly power, and the eternal triumph of good over evil, expressed through the enduring beauty of early Christian sacred art.
