St. Christopher white gold medal.
A
large man from Palestine, he worked for a while helping
travelers ford a raging river, as a human ferry. One day
a small child asked for this service. Perched on
Christopher's shoulder, the child grew heavier and
heavier as they crossed the stream. Reaching the other
shore, Christopher asked him "Who are you, that you
placed me in such peril. It seems I was carrying the
whole world on my shoulders". The child replied "You not
only carried the world, but him who made it. I am Jesus
Christ the King". Travelers (July 25th). |

Interesting fact about Saints.
Saints are people who've
lived lives of extraordinary holiness. God, in his eagerness to call
attention to their way of life, often allows special favors to be
obtained through their intercession. If the saint is a patron saint,
the occupation or country is listed often followed by the feast day.
Die Struck Medals.
The medals we sell and use in manufacture of
our rings and various articles such as tie tacks and lapel pins are die
struck. Die plates are carved by the forgotten artists and known for their
high detail. Thus die struck medals have fine high detail as opposed to cast
medals. Cast medals tend to be heavier but the trade off the weight for
quality is well worth it in heirlooms made to last generations. |
