Faith: why we wear a medal
We are Marian and Bárbara, and we grew up surrounded by medals: those of our parents and grandparents, the ones given at a baptism or a First Communion and worn for a lifetime. For us, faith is not an idea: it is lived at home, inherited, and worn.
A medal is not an amulet
We don't wear a medal for good luck. We wear it to keep the Virgin and the saints close, to remind us to pray, and to remember who gave it to us. The Church reminds us: a medal is a testimony of faith, not a talisman. We tell you about it in should a medal be blessed? and in our 10 reasons to wear a religious medal.
Giving a medal is an act of love
When you give a medal, you entrust someone you love: a newborn at their baptism, a girl at her First Communion, your mother, your goddaughter, or a friend going through a difficult time. It is a way of saying "I pray for you" without saying a word. That is why we talk about meaningful gifts.
The faith of every family
At home, we are very devoted to Saint Anthony of Padua: he is the saint we have always turned to, and we tell you about it in Saint Anthony, the saint of our family. Every family has its own: the Virgin of the grandmother's name, the patron saint of the town, the saint to whom you pray on difficult days. Find yours in medals by name or in gifts from your land.
Always with a medal
We always wear a medal, and we want wearing one to become natural again: at the office, on a trip, at a wedding, or on any Sunday. That is why we design them ourselves and make them by hand in Spain, with pearls, natural stones, and enamels: so that you will want to wear it every day.
