RELIGIOUS COINS
Devotion, cast in metal
A piece for what you believe in.
Our religious commissions are produced in close collaboration with clergy, families, and faith communities. Every patron saint medallion, ordination keepsake, and ministry coin is sculpted, cast, and finished as a single bespoke piece.
THE DESIGN
Made for one person. Never repeated.
A religious medallion is one of the most enduring pieces a person can carry. We approach this work with the reverence it deserves: every iconography reference is discussed in detail, every relief is carefully sculpted, and every inscription is set by hand.
Our most frequent commissions are patron saint medallions, ordination and consecration keepsakes, parish and ministry coins, and pilgrimage commemoratives. Pieces can be produced individually or as a coordinated set for a community.
All pieces are available in solid gold, sterling silver, or bronze. Presentation cases with engraved dedications can be made to accompany the piece.
