Hand finished 14k or 18k gold pendant The pendant measures 33mm (1.6") without bail. A statement piece! The intertwined “A” and “M” of this exquisite French design represent Auspice Maria—Latin for “Under the protection of Mary.” For centuries, this beloved Marian monogram has been a reminder to place ourselves beneath Our Lady’s loving care and trust in her powerful intercession. Above the monogram rests a crown, symbolizing Mary as Queen of Heaven, while the reverse features Our Lady of Lourdes, where Mary revealed to St. Bernadette her title as “the Immaculate Conception.” Beautifully resurrected from a vintage French medal created in honor of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception, this piece reflects the artistry and devotion of a bygone era.
