At her feet, the serpent lies crushed — a testament to the victory promised in Genesis. Her arms extend in welcome, not just to her Son, but to all His children. The Sacred and Immaculate Hearts, visible upon her chest, beat with a love that transcends time and space.

This carving captures more than form — it captures essence. In her downward gaze, there is compassion; in her posture, maternal protection. She is the New Eve, the Ark of the New Covenant, rendered in warm wood grain.

When anxiety stirs or loneliness whispers, let your eyes rest upon her. Between the wood and your heart, grace finds passage. She reminds us: "Do whatever He tells you" (John 2:5), pointing always to her Son.

Place her where your day begins — beside your Bible, near your morning coffee, where the first light touches your quiet space. Let the beechwood, which darkens beautifully with age, mirror the deepening of your own faith journey.

This is not decoration for a season, but companionship for a lifetime. She sanctifies ordinary spaces — your kitchen, your office, your child's room — reminding all who dwell there that heaven has touched earth, and continues to do so.

Unlike mass-produced items, each carving begins with a prayer. The artisan's hands move in rhythm with whispered Hail Marys, transforming raw wood into a sacred image. No two pieces are identical — each bears the unique marks of prayerful attention, much like each soul is uniquely known by God.

European beech was chosen intentionally — it is strong yet workable, humble yet beautiful. It matures with a richer patina over years, just as our faith deepens with time and trial. This is an heirloom meant to be passed down, carrying with it the prayers of generations.

In this carved medal, we see the mystery of the Incarnation reflected through His mother. As the Word became flesh in her womb, so too does prayer become substance in this wood. It is a tangible reminder that the spiritual is not abstract — it inhabits our material world, hallowing our daily lives.

Let this image be a window to heaven in your home. When words fail, let her presence speak. When faith wavers, let her steadfast gaze remind you of the "great things" God has done (Luke 1:49).
