old silver embossed tray, metal formed rose, found button,

hand made reliquary fashioned of heavy paper and soldered,  with removable soldered and embellished glass lid,

holding an authentic vintage virgin mary cameo,

in an ornate filigree armature.

the cameo rests on a hand sewn black velvet pillow,

and may easily be removed to wear as a brooch or necklace.

tray measures 8" by 4"

complete with a metal hanger on the back

and finished with a vintage drop silk spun pearl with

unending love for mary and all her children.

the story of becoming

waits for you here
