Handmade item
Materials: Pewter
Style: Art deco
Pendant width: 1 Inches; Pendant height: 1 Inches

I design, carve, and cast the medals myself. The medals are made of lead-free pewter and have designs on both sides. The pendant comes with a jump ring (see photo 1), so it can easily be attached to any chain you have. This listing is for the pendant alone, but it does come with a split ring so it can also be used on a key chain (see photo of packaging). Each medal comes in a felt jewelry pouch with a history card that states:

St. John of God (1495-1550) spent his youth as a shepherd, was a mercenary and debauchee, and then went through a brief period of insanity. In his 40s, he had a vision of the Infant Jesus, who called him John of God. To make up for the suffering he’d caused as a soldier, he rented a house in Grenada, Spain, and began to care for the sick and the poor. He gave away all that he had to the indigent and went so far as to carry, like Mother Teresa, the ill from the streets into his home, treating them with “infinite care and respect.” John founded the Order of Hospitallers. For these reasons he is the patron of the sick, especially heart patients, and hospital workers. This pendant was handcarved by Hank Schlau and was cast in pewter.

Dimensions: 1 inch in diameter x 1/8 in. thick; this is a large medal

This was purchased as a gift for a relative undergoing surgery. It is a lovely St. John of God medal and the recipient treasures it. The pieces from this shop are always unique and beautiful. The artist was really accommodating and sent it out right away. It arrived the day before the surgery, absolutely perfect timing. Communication is fantastic as well. I am a repeat customer and know this shop never disappoints. I highly recommend them for unique, beautifully made items.

I ordered the St John of God medal for my grandson’s confirmation. The first order was lost in transit. Owner Hank sent a replacement, and it arrived in two days. I am very impressed with the medal and with the service I received. I highly recommend In the Company of Saints and would order again without reservation!

This is an absolutely gorgeous medal. I loved the story behind the master craftsman’s process of how he makes medals and statues. The shipping was lighting fast!! Came in a lovely velvet pouch. I purchased this for myself, as I’m a heart patient and cannot believe how lovely it is. Thank you. Highly recommend!
