About the Item
This exceptional double sided medallion of Virgin Mary and St. Joseph was hand fabricated circa 1900 by Enguerrand du Suau de la Croix of France. The pendant has been hand fabricated in silver-gilt and adorned with double high relief cabochons of enamel that gives the illusion of gemstone "panes", a technique the artist created. In order to fuse the enamel and silver the artist had to keep the enameler's lamp at 800 degrees as the silver would become too soft. Quite a delicate process.
In 2012 the Musee d'Orsay acquired the archive of Suau de la Croix and a number of his pieces are now on display at the museum.
Measurements: 26.5 mm diameter, 30 mm in height without the 8.5 mm split ring
Markings: makers' mark and boar head hallmark for French silver located at the top of the Joseph side
Notes: one small chip on Virgin Mary side, replaced bale, chain is for photography purposes only

Vintage French Silver Virgin Mary Medal Necklace Gold-Plated Figaro Chain
By J DAUPHIN
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This entirely vintage French necklace features a solid silver Virgin Mary medal with the Latin inscription Monstra Te Esse Matrem — Show thyself as Mother. Sourced in Paris, the medal is suspended from a vintage gold-plated figaro chain, creating a devotional necklace of historic and spiritual depth.
On the reverse, the medal bears the inscription Congrégation des Enfants de Marie — Congregation of the Children of Mary — a symbol of consecration, protection, and lifelong dedication to the care of the Holy Mother. The front shows the Virgin Mary with rays extending from her hands, surrounded by stars, echoing traditional Marian iconography.
The figaro chain is flat-linked and substantial, adding elegance and vintage character to the piece. Entirely original — both medal and chain are antique — this is not a reproduction or recombination.
Ideal for collectors of Catholic devotional jewelry, Marian medals, or French religious artifacts, this necklace serves as a spiritual talisman and sacred adornment, offering comfort, clarity, and connection to divine grace.
