925 Sterling Silver Men's Womens St Benedict San Benito Protection Medal Pendant

Two Sides. One Powerful Symbol.

The St. Benedict Medal — Medalla de San Benito — is one of the most recognized symbols of protection in the Catholic tradition. Worn for centuries to ward off evil, illness, and negative forces, this medal carries deep spiritual significance for believers around the world.

This 925 sterling silver version is crafted with exceptional detail: the saint's side features a brilliant diamond-cut finish that catches the light beautifully, while the reverse cross side has a smooth, polished finish — two distinct looks in one reversible pendant. At 2¼ inches long including the hoop, it has a commanding, substantial presence.
