Oval Mary Medal Connector, Our Lady of Lourdes, Catholic Necklace, Vintage Rosary Parts, Antiqued Gold Charm, GL-6173

This connector features the face of Mary on one side, and the apparition at Lourdes on the other. A little history: In 1858, a 14 year old peasant girl (Bernadette Soubirous) had a vision of Mary in a grotto of Lourdes, France. People were first skeptical of Bernadette's claims, but after subsequent apparitions, Mary spoke saying, "I am the Immaculate Conception." This apparition was eventually accepted, and Bernadette was canonized as a saint in 1933. A stunning basilica was built, and the grotto in Lourdes is visited by millions annually.

Carson's Cove Metals and Finishes

Carson's Cove (CC) finishes are achieved with high-quality plating done by family-owned businesses in the United States. We do our best to maintain consistent finishes, but due to the nature of plating, there may be slight differences between batches.

All Carson's Cove "12k Antiqued Gold" finish components are plated with real 12k gold, and then antiqued. They are all the same gold, but highly textured pieces may look a bit different than smooth pieces because the texture captures more of the antiquing elements. Why 12k gold? Because 12k gold is a light, neutral gold without an orange tone, and it looks beautiful on every skin tone!

CC "Antiqued Silver" finish differs from "Antiqued Pewter" finish in that the silver finish is brighter and lighter than the pewter finish. However, many designers mix and match the two.

CC pewter components are made of high-quality pewter that is free of lead and cadmium. Most CC chain is made of regular steel, and some is made of brass. It is then plated with the various CC finishes. CC plating is known to hold up very well over time, but as always with any plated items, we recommend keeping it away from water and perfume.
