Her image was found on his cloak, the tilma, still kept today in the Basilica of Guadalupe. She is shown with joined hands, a mantle of stars and a crown of rays, standing on the crescent moon held by an angel. Her feast falls on December 12, and many families keep her image at home and ask for her protection. This tall oval relief is cast in alloy with an antique silver-tone finish, its darkened recesses bringing out the stars, the rays and the angel, on a ball chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlacing your whole family under her mantle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer image has watched over your home for years.

It hangs on a simple ball chain, and reads well over a plain T-shirt, a white blouse or a dark sweater, where the relief catches the light. The pendant is cast alloy, so keep it away from water, perfume and harsh products, and take it off before a shower or a swim to protect the antique finish. It suits a confirmation, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, or the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe on December 12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe prayer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

It is one of the most important days of the year in Mexico, and a natural moment to give this medal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the pendant made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast alloy with an antique silver-tone finish. The darker recesses bring out the details of the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the darkened recesses of The Guadalupe Relief fade if it gets wet?\u003c\/strong\u003e They can, over time. The antique silver tone is a finish on cast alloy, so water, soap and perfume slowly wear it; take the pendant off before showering or swimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan a man wear a Guadalupe medal?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Many men wear Our Lady of Guadalupe, and the antique silver tone gives this one a sober look that suits a man as well as a woman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is Our Lady of Guadalupe so important in Mexico?\u003c\/strong\u003e She is the patroness of Mexico and of the Americas, and her image at the Basilica in Mexico City draws millions of pilgrims every year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould I have The Guadalupe Relief blessed before giving it for a confirmation?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is up to you. The pendant arrives unblessed; having an image of Mary blessed is a common Catholic custom, not a requirement, and a priest or deacon can do it, often after Mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!--\/bc-ai-more--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bennett \u0026 Cross","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55228420587861,"sku":"CJLX104635201AZ","price":139.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/5964\/2197\/files\/the-guadalupe-relief-front-default-2026-10.jpg?v=1791784409","url":"https:\/\/bennettandcross.com\/en-au\/products\/the-guadalupe-relief-710144","provider":"Bennett \u0026 Cross","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
