FAQs

The Miraculous Medal design originated from apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary reported by Saint Catherine Laboure in Paris in 1830, requesting the creation of a medal with specific imagery and text.

Antique French gold pieces are typically crafted from 18-carat yellow gold and frequently bear the eagle head hallmark indicating standard French fineness, alongside maker marks.

Authenticity is determined by examining the crispness of the stamping, metal testing for gold purity, verification of period-appropriate hallmarks, and natural wear patterns consistent with age.

An antique pendant can be worn suspended from a modern trace chain for everyday layering or paired with heavier vintage chains to create a statement necklace.

Vintage gold items should be cleaned gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemical dips that may damage delicate details or integrated gemstones.
