St Andrew Medal

A die-cast St Andrew medal supplied wholesale to parishes, Catholic schools, religious-goods stores, and online resellers. Each piece is struck in Italy from durable zamak alloy and finished in an antiqued silver-tone, with sharp relief on both faces and a soldered jump ring ready for a chain, cord, rosary, or keyring. Each medal measures 22 × 16 mm (about ⅞ × ⅝ inch), and the oxidised finish resists tarnish and keeps the engraving legible through years of daily wear. Medals are supplied in packs of 10, with volume pricing on larger quantities and a low minimum order.

St Andrew the Apostle was a fisherman and the brother of St Peter — the first disciple called by Christ, who then brought his brother to follow him too. He preached through Greece and was martyred at Patras on an X-shaped cross, the saltire that bears his name and flies on the flag of Scotland. He is the patron saint of Scotland, Greece, Russia, and Ukraine, and of fishermen, and the medal shows him with his distinctive diagonal cross.

For buyers, the medal sells across the calendar and to several audiences: stock for his November 30 feast (St Andrew’s Day, Scotland’s national day), gifts within Scottish and fishing communities, Confirmation and saint-name gifts for the many named Andrew, and steady year-round devotional inventory. The compact oval suits display cards, blister packs, and counter merchandising, and pairs naturally with chains or cord stocked alongside it.

As a long-established Italian-sourced supplier shipping to roughly 25 countries, we include detailed customs invoices on every international order and hold medal quality consistent across repeat batches — so your shelves stay stocked and your reorders match what sold before.

FAQ

What is St Andrew the patron saint of?

St Andrew the Apostle is the patron of Scotland, Greece, Russia, and Ukraine, and of fishermen and fishmongers. The brother of St Peter and the first disciple Christ called, he is honoured across both Western and Eastern Christianity.

Why is St Andrew shown with an X-shaped cross?

By tradition Andrew was crucified at Patras on a cross shaped like an X — the saltire — feeling unworthy to die on the same cross as Christ. That diagonal cross became his symbol and appears on the flag of Scotland, of which he is patron.
