Notre Dame du Pilier

Notre Dame du Pilier is a christening medal in jewellery-grade mother-of-pearl rimmed in solid silver, taking up the Virgin of the Pillar of Notre-Dame de Paris on a ground of smooth mother-of-pearl.

The Virgin of the Pillar, in mother-of-pearl

Mary crowned, standing, a veil over her hair, holds the Child nestled on her arm, turning towards her; her tunic falls in long folds. Without the rose window, the mother-of-pearl ground leaves all the room to the statue, whose folds and crown read as a cameo. It is the Virgin of the Pillar, a fourteenth-century statue standing at the crossing of the transept of Notre-Dame de Paris, which came through the fire of 2019, turned into a sober, Parisian christening medal. The silver rim almost melts into the whiteness of the mother-of-pearl. Exclusive Manufacture Mayaud model, registered design.
