Identified by seller as 'AN ANTIQUE SPANISH COLONIAL ROSARY - 1700', which
would make sense as when England was trying to take over Ireland during the Penal times, Ireland and
Spain began trading more and this crucifix had an easy way to travel there, then possibly to 'New Spain'
(Latin America) The Penal Cross ties back to the Holy Site in Loch Derg (Ireland)

*Theotokos / Agiosortissa* - 
(Mother of God) / (Intercessor)
A rare medal icon of a full figure of Our Lady
surrounded by people at her feet.

( MP-OY = Theotokos )

Probably a tryptych at one time, with 'doors' that opened left and right as has rings for
hinges on both sides, top and bottom. By tradition there would be an image of Christ on a separate panel (inner door -  to her left). She faces in that direction. This rare, full figured Icon of Mary (only 2) is called 'Agiosortissa' (intercessor).  Also known as the 'Travelers Icon' as  worn for prayer and protection in travel and battle. Small square on top is called a Vernicle  (Image of the Face of Christ.  (A - O) and has a chain ring on back for wearing.

READ ABOUT THE ORDER THAT WAS LOST
 AND FOUND THROUGH PRAYER
Thanks be to God, we will be able to share with you our newest collection, but not without a history! Items below were shipped to our caster Feb 24th 2007 and it was lost. We were sick as these pieces are rare reasure, antiques, never to be found again! The history of them being found is a precious lesson in prayer! Jesus is in contol!

MATTHEW 21:21-22
21  Jesus said to them in reply, "Amen, I say to you, if you have faith and do not waver, not only will you do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will be done. 22  Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive."

... on a large 100 year old rosary ...
I wanted to thank you for sending my order out so quickly. The silver Renaissance cross and cross and shield center medal are beautiful.  I put them on a large 100 year old rosary made of amber glass beads with black faceted Pater Noster beads, and it looks quite wonderful.  Nicholas Churchill, (USA)
