Sterling Silver Premium St. Christopher Medal

Saint Christopher is viewed by several Christian denominations as a martyr killed in the 3rd-century.

There are several legends about Saint Christopher, including the one in which he was crossing a river when a child asked to be carried across. When Christopher put the child on his shoulders he found the child was unbelievably heavy. The child, according to the legend, was Christ carrying the weight of the whole world. This was what made Christopher patron saint of travelers.

Die Striking

This handsome piece is die-struck: an exceptional process of manufacturing that creates heirloom quality jewelry. The process starts with a sculptor hand carving the original design into a block of steel called a die. The die is then placed in a high tonnage press to transfer the detail from the original carving in the die on to a piece of softer precious metal. This process allows for maximum detail to transfer from the original work of art created by the sculptor in to the finished piece of jewelry.

Made With Pride In The U.S.A.

Craftsmanship

Special care has been taken to ensure the highest level of detail. The die-struck manufacturing, in addition to making a stronger medal, provides much more detail than conventional cast medals. The lettering is filled in with black ink for a more dramatic look, and for better readability. The back of the medal is beautifully polished and ready for your engraving. This medal comes with a deluxe rhodium plated, stainless steel chain. Sturdy, yet elegant, this chain makes the perfect accompaniment for this stunning piece.

Made To Last

This medal is crafted from a thick piece of sterling silver material that will stand up to personalized engraving and endure the test of time and wear. It is rhodium plated which prevents tarnishing.
