This is a gorgeous antique replica medallion of St Paraskeva. Saint Paraskeva is prominent among women healing saints, and is widely venerated as the healer of the blind. She is traditionally depicted holding two eyeballs in her hands. She is also considered the patron saint of fertility, matchmaking, and finding a spouse.

St. Paraskeva is known for her prayer when kneeling in front of the miraculous icon of the Holy Virgin: “My Holy Lady, all my hopes are directed towards you. Don't reject your humble servant, accept me, the sinner. I've kept loving your Son and my God since childhood.”

This fine piece is cast in solid gold bronze and produced in the U.S.A. The antiqued gold bronze version has been oxidized to allow the beautiful details and depth to radiate and be more visible. The antiqued gold version is lower maintenance, but comes with a polishing cloth to brighten since depending on wear it may darken a bit. The shiny gold bronze does require periodic polishing with a cloth (more or less depending on things like lotions, chemicals and water), but will stay shiny gold. The gold color is solid and throughout this piece.

Either medallion may be purchased as the medal only (with a ring). The antiqued gold bronze version is available on an antiqued gold 2.5mm rolo chain with a lobster clasp closure. The shiny gold bronze version is available on a delicate 2.5x2 mm gold plated cable chain, or on a 4x3mm gold plated cable chain. For the shiny option, I would recommend the heavier chain, particularly in the longer lengths. In the drop down box, "M" is an abbreviation for "medal" because Etsy limits the space available.

A Holy Moments® Original.

Thank you for visiting my Holy Moments Etsy Shop!  This has been my personal shopping account on Etsy for years.  I recently decided to open an Etsy shop and display a selection of products from my established Holy Moments on-line and show company (HolyMoments.com).

The artisan jewelry and rosaries are unique to Holy Moments.  Many pieces are only a few of a kind due to limited availability of certain gemstones or hand cast items.  New, exciting products are always being added to both the Etsy shop and company website.

A portion of profits are donated to the Cancer Research Institute in New York, a leader in immunotherapy research.  Please read my shop story for more.
