FAQs

Devotional medals have been produced in France for centuries, gaining widespread popularity during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as commemorative items for sacraments or personal protection. Master engravers die-struck precious metal discs with intricate iconographic bas-relief portraits of saints and the Virgin Mary.

Authentic French religious medals were commonly struck in 18-carat yellow gold using a die-stamping process that allowed for sharp detail in low relief. Details such as laurel borders, textured backgrounds, and hand-chased accents were frequently incorporated by skilled medallists.

French gold items generally feature official hallmarking, such as the eagles head stamp denoting 18-carat gold, applied to the suspension loop or rim. Additionally, many authentic medals bear the signature or initials of the artist who designed the die cast.

A gold devotional medallion can be worn as a singular focal piece on a fine gold chain or layered alongside contrasting chains and vintage charms. Its classic profile and rich warm colour complement both casual everyday wear and tailored evening attire.

Clean gold medals using a soft cloth and warm water with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could wear down delicate surface relief. Store the item separately in a lined jewellery pouch to prevent scratching from contact with other metals.
