{"product_id":"miraculous-medal-turquoise-olive-wood-bracelet","title":"Miraculous Medal Olive Wood Bracelet with Turquoise Crystal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Marian bracelet combines richly grained \u003cstrong\u003eHoly Land olive wood\u003c\/strong\u003e, vivid turquoise crystal beads and \u003cstrong\u003etwo silver-tone Miraculous Medals\u003c\/strong\u003e. The devotional medals are incorporated directly into the elastic strand, creating a distinctive Catholic bracelet designed for women and girls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApproximately \u003cstrong\u003e0.35in (9mm) olive wood beads\u003c\/strong\u003e are arranged with faceted \u003cstrong\u003e0.31in (8mm) turquoise crystal beads\u003c\/strong\u003e. The saturated blue color creates a striking contrast with the warm honey and brown tones of the wood, while the flexible stretch construction allows the bracelet to slip over the hand without a clasp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eTurquoise Crystal and Olive Wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSmall groups of faceted turquoise crystal beads are arranged between individual olive wood beads around the bracelet. This clustered construction creates a varied rhythm rather than a strict bead-by-bead alternation, allowing the bright blue sections and natural wood grain to remain individually visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe turquoise crystal beads have an opaque or semi-opaque finish and a rounded rondelle shape. Their cut surfaces reflect the light while maintaining a rich, consistent blue color. The olive wood beads vary naturally from light honey and amber to deeper brown, with distinctive grain markings across their polished surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eTwo Miraculous Medals\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo silver-tone oval Miraculous Medals are positioned at separate points along the strand. The visible side carries the familiar reverse design: the letter \u003cem\u003eM\u003c\/em\u003e joined with the cross, accompanied by the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Immaculate Heart of Mary and a surrounding crown of twelve stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two medals rest close to the wrist because they are threaded directly into the elastic rather than attached as hanging charms. Their placement ensures that the devotional design remains visible as the bracelet naturally shifts during wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eThe Meaning of the Miraculous Medal\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Miraculous Medal originated following the apparitions of the Virgin Mary to \u003cstrong\u003eSaint Catherine Labouré\u003c\/strong\u003e in Paris in 1830. Its design became one of the most widely recognized expressions of Marian devotion in the Catholic Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCatholics traditionally wear the medal as an expression of trust in Mary’s intercession and a commitment to prayer. The medal itself is not a magical object and does not promise automatic protection or favors; its devotional meaning depends upon the faith and prayer with which it is worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eMarian Devotion and the Holy Land\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe olive wood connects this bracelet with the landscape in which Mary lived—from the Annunciation in Nazareth and the Nativity in Bethlehem to her presence in Jerusalem during the Passion of Jesus. Christian artisans have shaped Holy Land olive wood into rosaries, crosses and devotional gifts for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBringing this material together with the Miraculous Medal creates a wearable connection between Mary’s life in the Holy Land and a Catholic devotion that later spread throughout the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eA Marian Gift for Women and Girls\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis turquoise crystal bracelet makes a meaningful gift for a mother, daughter, granddaughter, goddaughter, sponsor or friend. It is especially suitable for First Communion, Confirmation, Marian feast days, birthdays, Christmas, Easter or everyday devotional wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe elastic construction provides a flexible fit for most women’s wrists. It may also fit older girls, but the recipient’s wrist measurement should be checked before purchasing because stretch construction does not guarantee a universal child-sized fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-strand Marian stretch bracelet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproximately 0.35in (9mm) olive wood beads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproximately 0.31in (8mm) faceted turquoise crystal beads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo silver-tone Miraculous Medals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedals incorporated directly into the strand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible elastic construction with no clasp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned to fit most women’s wrists\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNatural olive wood color and grain will vary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRoll the bracelet gently over the hand rather than pulling or overstretching the elastic. Remove it before showering or swimming and avoid contact with perfume, cosmetics and household chemicals. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth after wear and do not store it stretched around a wide object, as prolonged tension may weaken the elastic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Piece of Holy Land","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46920413872300,"sku":null,"price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/0784\/8620\/files\/miraculous-medal-turquoise-olive-wood-bracelet-2.jpg?v=1786631139","url":"https:\/\/www.pieceofholyland.com\/products\/miraculous-medal-turquoise-olive-wood-bracelet","provider":"Piece of Holy Land","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
