Gorgeous antique gold, antique replica, of a rare Saint Anthony of Padua & Saint Francis of Assisi Two-Sided Medallion from France with Latin wording. One side has Latin "Ste Antoni de Padua O.P.Nobis" meaning "Saint Anthony of Padua Pray for Us". The other side has Latin "Ste Francisce de Assisi Ora Pro Nobis" meaning "Saint Francis of Assisi Pray for Us". I am blessed to have this mint condition original in my collection and be able to share this replica with you at a reasonable price.

St Anthony was a follower of St Francis. Most St Anthony medallions depict St Anthony holding the child Jesus because of his vision with radiant light and the child Jesus. St Anthony is a miracle-worker and patron saint of lost and stolen articles, the elderly, animals, expectant mothers and infertility.

The medallion is 3/4 inch round and dangles on a 2x3mm cable chain necklace with a lobster clasp closure.

This fine replica piece is cast in solid gold bronze using the lost wax method and produced in the U.S.A. The oxidation finishing process prevents tarnishing from contact with air. Excessive skin oils may darken the backside of the medal. It is also best to not wear gold bronze in water. A polishing cloth is included so the medal can be polished to the original appearance. You would not damage the medal by contact with water since it is solid gold bronze (not a plating), but it may darken and need additional polishing. The cable chain is a high quality antique gold plate.

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.
