What makes this ring different: rhodium-plated sterling silver
This ring is genuine 925 sterling silver, coated with a thin layer of rhodium, a precious metal in the platinum group. Rhodium plating serves three purposes: it gives the silver a brighter, whiter finish (similar to white gold); it makes the surface harder and more scratch-resistant than bare sterling; and it protects the silver from the natural oxidation that causes tarnishing over time. With basic care, a rhodium-plated sterling silver ring keeps its bright finish for years of daily wear without the polishing required by traditional sterling silver.
We import this piece directly from our partner workshop in Arezzo, Italy — Europe's principal center for fine gold and silver jewelry production since the Etruscan period. No dropshipping, no unknown supply chain. Every order ships from our own US warehouse in Weston, Florida.
About the Miraculous Medal devotion
The Miraculous Medal, also known as the Medal of the Immaculate Conception, originated in Paris in 1830. According to tradition, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Saint Catherine Labouré at the chapel on 140 Rue du Bac, requesting that a medal be struck with the image and inscription she revealed: "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."
The medal became one of the most widespread Catholic sacramentals in history, with hundreds of millions distributed worldwide. The Chapel of the Miraculous Medal at 140 Rue du Bac remains a major Marian pilgrimage site, and Guadalupe Gifts holds an exclusive distribution partnership with the Chapel for select pieces in our catalog.
This ring captures the iconic oval medal design — the Blessed Virgin Mary with arms outstretched, rays of light flowing from her hands, surrounded by the Latin inscription of the prayer revealed to Saint Catherine — adapted as a wearable, adjustable band for daily devotion.

Frequently asked questions
What is rhodium plating, and why does it matter?
Rhodium is a precious metal from the platinum group, even rarer than gold. When applied as a thin coating over sterling silver, it brightens the silver's white color and protects it from tarnishing. Most "white gold" jewelry is also rhodium-plated for the same reason. With basic care, the rhodium finish keeps its bright white color for years.
Will this ring tarnish?
Sterling silver naturally develops a dark patina over time when exposed to air and moisture — a chemical reaction known as tarnishing. The rhodium plating on this ring acts as a barrier between the silver and the air, significantly slowing or preventing tarnishing. With basic care (avoiding water, perfume, and chemical cleaners), the ring will maintain its bright finish for years.
How adjustable is the ring?
The open band design adjusts to fit most adult finger sizes, roughly equivalent to US sizes 5 through 9. Gently squeeze the band for a tighter fit, or widen it slightly for a looser fit. Avoid repeatedly bending the band, as this can weaken the metal over time.
Is this ring from the Chapel of the Miraculous Medal in Paris?
No. This specific ring is handcrafted in Arezzo, Italy, and imported directly by Guadalupe Gifts. We do hold an exclusive distribution partnership with the Chapel of the Miraculous Medal at 140 Rue du Bac for select pieces in our catalog — but this particular ring is from our Italian workshop partner. Both sources are authenticated and disclosed honestly.
What is the difference between this and the gold vermeil version?
Both rings come from the same Arezzo workshop and feature the same Miraculous Medal design, sterling silver base, and adjustable open-band construction. The difference is the finish: this version is plated in rhodium for a bright silver/white look, while the gold vermeil version has a 2.5+ micron coating of 18k gold over the same sterling silver base for a warm gold look. The price difference reflects the cost of the gold layer.
Care instructions
Rhodium-plated sterling silver is durable enough for everyday wear, but to protect the finish, remove before showering, swimming, exercising, or applying perfume, lotion, or hairspray; store in the included gift box away from direct sunlight; wipe gently with a soft cloth after wearing. Avoid bending the adjustable band repeatedly. Avoid silver polish or chemical cleaners, which can strip the rhodium layer. With basic care, the rhodium finish protects the silver from tarnishing for many years of daily use.
