The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Devotional medals portraying the Virgin Mary gained widespread popularity in 19th- and early 20th-century France, serving as personal expressions of Catholic faith, protection, and spiritual devotion.

Traditional French devotional medals were frequently crafted from high-purity yellow gold, such as 18-carat gold, utilizing die-striking techniques to produce crisp bas-relief portraiture.

Authentic French gold medals typically bear official assay hallmarks, such as the eagles head mark denoting 18-carat gold, often stamped onto the suspension bail or outer rim alongside a makers mark.

Small devotional jewellery pieces can be displayed within glass-topped collector frames or presented on velvet-lined trinket trays atop a bedroom dressing table.

Clean yellow gold jewellery using warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft-bristled brush to remove dust from detailed surfaces without causing abrasions.
