Copper jewelry is often believed to boost energy levels and support the body’s immunity, which may explain why many St. Benedict medals are crafted from this metal. St. Benedict, known as a powerful protector against Satan, is also invoked for protection from illness. Our vintage, 5/8-inch round copper St. Benedict medal is suspended from an elegant 18-inch, 14K rose gold-filled, 1.15 mm rolo chain. Wear this beautiful piece not only as a symbol of spiritual protection but also as a reminder to pray for strength in times of temptation, for peace in our world, and for Christ to be our guide and light.
