St. Theresa was born in Rue Saint-Blaise, Alencon, in France on January 2, 1873. After previous rejections because of her youth, she entered the Carmelite order of Lisieux in April of 1888. At fourteen, Therese had understood her vocation to pray for priests, to be "an apostle to apostles." She knew as a Carmelite nun she would never be able to perform great deeds. She wrote: "Love proves itself by deeds, so how am I to show my love? Great deeds are forbidden me. The only way I can prove my love is by scattering flowers and these flowers are every little sacrifice, every glance and word, and the doing of the least actions for love." Thus she became known as the ‘Little Flower.’ St. Therese is known today because of her spiritual memoir, “L'histoire d'une âme” (The Story of a Soul). Due to tuberculosis, Therese's final years were marked by a steady decline that she bore resolutely and without complaint. She died on September 30, 1897 at the young age of 24. Her Feast Day is October 1.

It’s fitting this is finely crafted in silver, since the spiritual meaning of silver symbolizes strength, spirit, grace, divinity, wisdom and purity. This can be worn as a symbol of your faith as your favorite fashion statement. Sterling silver is reflective and mirrors the soul, it is said it brings calm and balance to the wearer. Shaman believe silver gives the wearer protection from negativity and evil; it is known as the metal of love and healing. Sterling Silver is 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper. Copper is silver's best companion since it improves the hardness and durability of silver, yet allows the silver to retain its beautiful color.

The rising price of silver makes this a great investment.
