The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Devotional medals have been produced in France for centuries as tokens of faith, protection, and commemoration. During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, French jewellers refined the craft using die-stamping and hand-engraving techniques to produce detailed miniature relief sculptures of sacred figures.

High-grade French religious medals were commonly crafted from 18-carat yellow gold or rose gold, often combining multi-tone gold alloys to highlight contrasting decorative borders and central motifs.

Authentic French gold items typically bear official state hallmarks on the suspension loop or rim, such as the eagles head punch mark indicating 18-carat gold purity, along with makers marks enclosed within a lozenge shape.

Small antique jewellery pieces and medals can be presented under miniature glass display cloches, mounted inside custom fabric-lined shadow boxes, or displayed on velvet jewellery stands on dressers and vanity tops.

Clean gold pendants gently using warm water with a mild detergent and a soft-bristled brush. Avoid abrasive polishing compounds or chemical dip treatments that can strip away natural historical patina.
