A great holiday gift idea from Isadora. St. Anne was the mother of the Virgin Mary. he is the patron saint of housewives and woman in labor. This cross is inspired by the wrought iron design before the altar of St. Anne in the Basilica of Sacre Coeur atop Montmatre in Paris, France. This special altar is dedicated to the women and children who were at risk in occupied France during World War II. This cross comes with a historical information card. A collection of crosses created by Byron and Deanne McKeown, created from their historical research on crosses and rosaries worldwide. Cast in sterling silver, gold, vermeil, semi-precious and precious stones, these designs are exclusive to the McKeown Galleries.
