Our Lady Star of the Sea Medal (Stella Maris)

Our Lady Star of the Sea Medal (Stella Maris)

A die-cast Our Lady Star of the Sea medal — Stella Maris — supplied wholesale to coastal and port parishes, maritime and seafarers’ ministries, 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; the back is inscribed “Pray for Us.” 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.

Stella Maris, Latin for “Star of the Sea,” is one of the most ancient titles of the Blessed Virgin Mary, honouring her as the guiding star who leads the faithful safely to Christ. Loved by sailors and all who live and work on the water, she is the patroness of the sea, of mariners, fishermen, and travellers, and her title gives its name to the Church’s worldwide ministry to seafarers. The medal shows Mary holding the Christ Child beneath a star, with the sea at her feet and “Stella Maris” around the front.

For buyers, the medal serves a clearly defined audience: the many parishes, chapels, and schools named “Star of the Sea,” port chaplaincies and seafarers’ centres, naval, merchant-marine, and fishing communities, blessing-of-the-fleet and Sea Sunday events, gifts for boaters, sailors, and travellers, and general Marian devotion. The compact oval suits display cards, blister packs, and counter merchandising, and pairs naturally with chains or cord stocked alongside it.
