Description

4 1/2″ diameter.

The ornament has the image of the unique Coat of Arms of Pope John Paul II. for over 800 years each Pope have had his own unique Coat of Arms as a symbol of his papacy. The Coat of Arms traditionally features gold and silver key symbolizing the keys to the kingdom of heaven promised to St. Paul with authority to bind and loose, and a triple crown (tiara) symbolizing the Pope’s three powers as superme priest, pastor, and teacher. Pope John Paul II coat of arms is intended to as homage to the central mystery of Christianity -the redemption.Therefore the main representation is a cross, one that doesn’t conform to the heraldic model. The reason for the unusual placement of the vertical section of the cross is so it can accommodate the large M which symbolizes the presence of Mary beneath the cross & her participation in Redemption. This magnifies Pope John II devotion to the Virgin Mary- his motto as  Krakow’s cardinal was TOTUS TUUS (all yours), and his lifelong attachment to her.
