Rhodium Plated Sterling Silver 24K Gold Plated St. Christopher Medal, 24" Necklace (28.19x25.13MM)

A large man at 7.5 feet tall, he worked helping travelers cross a raging river safely. One day a small child asked for his service. Perched on Christopher’s shoulders, the child grew heavier and heavier as they crossed the stream. Reaching the other shore, Christopher asked him, ‘Who are you, that you placed me in such peril? It seems I was carrying the whole world on my shoulders. I am Jesus Christ, the King.’ St. Christopher's name means ‘Christ-bearer.’ He holds patronage of all things related to travel with protection from accidents, lightning, pestilence, floods, storms. Also patronage for a Holy death, archers, bachelors, fruit dealers, gardeners, drivers, sailors, surfers, toothache, mountaineering and all transportation workers. His feast day is celebrated July 25.

Rhodium is hypoallergenic; it is a liquid metal which is extracted from platinum after being pulled from the mine.
