Friends, this listing is for a VINTAGE 10K Gold VIRGIN OF GUADALUPE Pendant with HUGE Matching 10K Gold Slide Ring - PATRON SAINT of Mexico. Gorgeous depiction of the Virgin on a textured background with a diamond-cut outer border and a cutout archway at the top. On the back, there is a 14K stamp, however, its only tests out at 10K purity. It\'s not a bright shiney yellow gold, but has a dull sheen to it. There are no other markings, but I suspect this was made in Mexico.
From WIKIPEDIA: Our Lady of Guadalupe,SpanishNuestra Señora de Guadalupe, also calledthe Virgin of Guadalupe, in Roman Catholicism,the Virgin Mary in her appearance before Juan Diegoin a vision in 1531. The name also refers to the Marian apparition itself. Our Lady of Guadalupe holds a special place in the religious life of Mexico and is one of the most popular religious devotions. Her image has played an important role as a national symbol of Mexico.According to tradition, Mary appeared to Juan Diego, who was an Aztec convert to Christianity, on December 9 and again on December 12, 1531. She requested that a shrine to her be built on the spot where she appeared, Tepeyac Hill (now in a suburb of Mexico City). The bishopdemanded a sign before he would approve construction of a church, however. Mary appeared a second time to Juan Diego and ordered him to collect roses. In a second audience with the bishop, Juan Diego opened his cloak, letting dozens of roses fall to the floor and revealing the image of Mary imprinted on the inside of the cloak—the image that is now venerated in the Basilica of Guadalupe.This Medal / Pendant is in EXCELLENT condition with NORMAL signs of wear and a GOOD patina for its age.
