This medal/pendant portrays St Elizabeth of Hungary. She was born in 1207 in Thuringia into royalty. She was married at 14 and widowed at 20, after having borne 3 children. She was much attracted from an early age to a life of piety and self renunciation so when she was released from her queenly duties at age 20, she arranged for the care of her children and became a Third Order Franciscan. She founded a hospital to care for the poor and needy and died at age 24. Much beloved by all who knew her.

The original was painted in acrylics and colored pencil on paper.

The same image is on both sides.

All of our pendants and ornaments are made with lead free solder and glass. Great on a chain or bracelet. We offer a ball chain elsewhere in our shop. 

If you put the charm/medal on a key chain, it may get broken if not treated kindly. It is glass. If you want one for a key chain, we can custom make your medium charm/medal with a thicker glass for $3. Small charm/medals don't need thicker glass, but either way, they need to be on a chain before you add them to your key ring.
