This Miraculous Medal pendant is made of solid 14K gold and surrounded by a halo of freshwater cultured pearls, as if Our Lady rests within a circle of light. It is a gentle, feminine piece of devotion, and a gift that feels as special on the day it is given as it will years from now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant measures 11 mm by 13 mm, not including the bail. At its center is an oval Miraculous Medal in solid 14K gold, set against a soft satin background. The front shows Our Lady standing on the globe, arms lowered and hands open, with rays of grace streaming from them and a halo of small stars above her head. Polished bright-cut accents on her mantle catch the light against the satin finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAround the medal, small freshwater cultured pearls sit in a fine gold frame, framed by three polished gold bars at the sides and base. The pearls show a soft luster with gentle pink and blue overtones, and because pearls are made by nature, each one varies slightly in shape, which gives every pendant its own character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reverse carries the traditional design of the Miraculous Medal: the letter M joined to a cross and a bar, surrounded by stars, with the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary beneath it. The back of the bail is stamped 14K and the maker's mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Devotion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1830, Our Lady appeared to Saint Catherine Labouré, a young Daughter of Charity in Paris, and asked her to have a medal struck according to the vision she was shown. The rays from Mary's hands, she explained, are the graces she gives to those who ask for them. The medal spread so quickly, and so many graces were attributed to it, that the faithful soon called it the Miraculous Medal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M and the Cross on the Crosses recall Mary standing at the foot of the Cross, and the two hearts unite the love of the Son and the Mother. Like every sacramental, the medal is not a charm or a guarantee. Its meaning lives in the prayer and trust in Mary that it accompanies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMedal and Frame\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14K solid yellow gold (stamped 14K on the back of the bail)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePearls\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFreshwater cultured pearls\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 mm x 13 mm (0.43 in x 0.51 in), not including the bail\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSatin medal with polished bright-cut accents and polished gold frame\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFront\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOur Lady of the Miraculous Medal with a halo of stars\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eReverse\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTraditional M with Cross and Crossars, Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChain\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOrigin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImported\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePackaging\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite jewelry gift box\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWomen who love the softness of pearls\u003c\/strong\u003e and want an elegant, feminine devotional piece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMothers and grandmothers\u003c\/strong\u003e receiving a meaningful gift for Mother's Day, Día de las Madres, a birthday, or Christmas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA daughter or goddaughter\u003c\/strong\u003e celebrating her Confirmation with a first piece of fine devotional jewelry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDevotees of the Miraculous Medal\u003c\/strong\u003e, especially for its feast on November 27.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePearls are delicate.
