St Brigid Pendant Handmade porcelain portrait as a pendant. Black art on white 1-3/8" porcelain oval suspended on a 28" black cord. Exquisite detail.
Patron Saint of Ireland and babies. (circa 453-523)
Saint Brigid was born to an Irish Chieftain. She always had a charitable nature and so became the first Irish nun, starting convents throughout Ireland. Her wish was to relieve the hardships of the poor. She is known for the simple cross which she is believed to have woven for a dying pagan chieftain to illustrate the Christian faith. St Brigid's cross is commonly hung in Irish homes to bless them.
