Large Star

Wall hanging golden-brass tone three dimensional star measuring 19“ tall. Thin hammered metal with a hoop attached to the back for easy mounting.  A popular form of ex-voto is the milagro, Spanish for “miracle.” Milagros can come in all kinds of shapes and materials, though most are made of metal. Many depict specific objects, such as parts of the body, symbolizing the nature of the answered prayer or healing request. Visitors often leave these charms at shrines as votive offerings after healings; however, milagros also can be purchased and kept for personal devotion...
