14k Yellow Gold Round Hollow St. Lucy Medal (15MM)

Lucia of Syracuse (283–304) is the patron saint of the blind and those with eye trouble. In addition to being the patroness of Syracuse in Sicily, Saint Lucy is also the patron saint of the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia, one of the Windward Islands in the Lesser Antilles. Lucy was a young Christian martyr who died during the Diocletianic persecution. The oldest archaeological evidence comes from the Greek inscriptions from the catacombs of St. John in Syracuse. According to legend, she had taken vows of chastity but her mother promised her in marriage to a wealthy pagan. When Lucy rejected him and gave away much of her dowry to the poor, he reported her Christianity to the governor of Syracuse and she was put to death by sword. In medieval accounts, Saint Lucy's eyes are gouged out prior to her execution. Throughout many countries, special customs, devotions and holidays are observed, and festivals and processions are held to celebrate her Feast Day on December 13.

It's fitting this is crafted of gold; it's said spiritual energy and power are activated and awakened by wearing or praying with gold. Gold represents the spiritual treasure gained by transforming the spirit; it also represents love in the Bible. This is earth friendly as it is made with the Refined Karats system certified by Scientific Certification Systems' (SCS) strict requirements. Proudly made in America with a green process of ethically, environmentally and socially responsible production processes of water, waste and energy management; this is from 100 percent recycled Karats.

The rising price of gold makes this, quite simply, a great investment all around.
