[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 254172, member: 2844"]This is a popular Roman Catholic pendant. Do you know what the material is? The first side shows a madonna and child seated on a throne. Both are crowned, a reference to the kingdom of heaven, and Jesus has a halo. The outstretched arms of the baby Jesus are unusual, nice. It would have looked something like this, slightly different, but you get the idea: [IMG]https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=https%3A%2F%2Fs-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com%2F736x%2F5c%2F40%2Fc8%2F5c40c821c4bf3fc0cd1ebe9c301be9a1.jpg&sp=2fa3bc8a99ee6f2ed56515d16f58198f[/IMG] The second side shows the 'immaculate heart of Mary'. That means her heart is pure, and she opens it with love for mankind. She has a halo, and behind her a lily as a symbol of purity. It would have looked like this, except this Mary is holding the lily in her hand.
