About Our Lady of the Pillar

According to tradition, the Virgin appeared to the apostle James in Zaragoza, by the Ebro, on a stone column: the Pillar. She is Spain's first Marian devotion, patroness of Hispanicity, and her feast day is celebrated on October 12 with the traditional Offering of Flowers. Discover her history and curiosities.

As a gift

Giving a medal is an act of love: it is worn close to the heart, kept for a lifetime, and often passed down. This piece is ideal for a Pilar or a Pili on October 12, a baptism, a First Communion, or for anyone who carries Aragon in their heart. Looking for the medal of her name? Look at medals by name.

And if it's for you: we always wear a medal. Protected and beautiful at the same time.

Complete it with a bracelet

It's the detail that completes the gift: the medal around the neck and faith also on the wrist. We recommend the Enamel Cross Bracelet (30 €), in the color of your choice. Or look at our gift packs, with a special price.

How do I care for it?
Put it on after perfume, cream, and makeup, and take it off to shower, swim, exercise, or sleep: water, sweat, and chemicals are what wear down the gold plating the most. Keep it separate, in its little bag or in a jewelry box, and clean it only with a soft, dry cloth. Here are 6 tips to make the shine last longer.

How does it differ from a cheap imported medal?
It is designed by us, handmade in Spain, and we clearly state what it is made of. Nothing to do with factory-made medals that are bought for a few euros and resold as "original design". We tell you about it in Khartes Medals vs. Cheap Imported Medals.
