The piece features an engraved portrait of \u003cstrong\u003ePadre Pio\u003c\/strong\u003e, an Italian saint canonized in 2002, highly venerated in the Catholic world for his stigmata and devotion. The representation is stylized using a laser or mechanical engraving technique, common in contemporary jewelry, allowing for a faithful reproduction of the face with subtle details, contrasting between matte and polished areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003epolished border\u003c\/strong\u003e, slightly raised compared to the satin-finished center, adds a crisp finish and highlights the central image. The bail (suspension ring) is simple yet sturdy, designed for daily or devotional use, allowing for a thin chain or cord to pass through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom a stylistic point of view, this medal falls into a \u003cstrong\u003econtemporary religious style\u003c\/strong\u003e, probably produced between the \u003cstrong\u003elate 20th century and the early 21st century\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its sober, functional, and direct aesthetic is characteristic of modern devotional objects intended for a wide audience, yet made from a noble material like 750\/1000 gold, often given for sacraments, as a pilgrimage souvenir, or as an important religious gift (baptism, confirmation, etc.).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis medal combines \u003cstrong\u003efaith and modern craftsmanship\u003c\/strong\u003e, while retaining a traditional aspect through its classic shape and sacred subject. The choice of 18-carat gold, beyond its material value, emphasizes the \u003cstrong\u003eprecious and symbolic nature\u003c\/strong\u003e of the object, intended to be kept for life, or even passed down.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marchand de Bijoux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57646349386059,"sku":"A.6010.02437-1","price":237.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1024\/3663\/4955\/files\/15817465397579-04a84623c871a549bfdf37f32203c8c833ccb138.jpg?v=1782136382","url":"https:\/\/marchand-de-bijoux.com\/en\/products\/pendentif-en-or-jaune-18k-padre-pio","provider":"Marchand de Bijoux","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
