Each beautifully designed medal is stamped in heavy gauge bronze and finished in a heavy silver plating that is thick enough to be engraved. The medals are rubbed with a soft patina to give them the distinct 'Py look.' The Double-Sided Scapular medal comes in a jewelry box with a 24" chain. This medal was designed from a vision given to St. Simon Stock, a Carmelite Monk (1165-1265), from The Blessed Virgin Mary with the promise, “that whomever died while wearing the scapular would never suffer the fires of hell”. Over the centuries the medal has become any medal that has an image of Jesus and of Mary on the same medal. The most traditional have on one side an image of the “Sacred Heart of Jesus”, and on the reverse side an image of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. Picture Shown is not actual size. Approximate size of medal is smaller, about 7/8" in diameter (the size of a nickel).
