Description
AG Saint Benedict 15″ Plaque.
The Saint Benedict Medal is a Christian sacramental medal containing symbols and text related to the life of Saint Benedict of Nursia, used by Roman Catholics, as well as Anglicans, Lutherans, Methodists and the Western Orthodox, in the Benedictine Christian tradition. The medal is one of the oldest and most honored medals used by Christians and due to the belief in its power against evil is also known as the “devil-chasing medal”. As early as the 11th century, it may have initially had the form of Saint Benedict’s cross, and was used by Pope Leo IX. In widespread use after its formal approval by Pope Benedict XIV in the 18th century, the medal is used by Roman Catholics to ward off spiritual and physical dangers, especially those related to evil, poison, and temptation. Beauty, grace and elegance are the earmarks of this Saint Benedict garden Plaque. Sculpted with the finest attention to detail, it reminds us that we can call on Saint Benedict to pray for us anytime, anywhere.
Wall and tabletop devotional pieces often become part of a household’s daily language of faith, present in the background until one day they are indispensable.
It works well in prayer corners, entryways, bedside spaces, and Catholic home interiors where sacred imagery is meant to comfort, strengthen, and quietly shape the atmosphere of daily life. The devotional character of Saint Benedict gives the piece an added sense of familiarity and prayerful meaning for Catholics who cherish that tradition.
It fits beautifully with Catholic home decor, devotional plaques, Divine Mercy gifts, saint art, and prayer room accents. Ideal for prayer spaces, parish settings, or meaningful gifting, it is made for those who want Catholic goods to feel reverent, beautiful, and truly lived with.
