St. Louis IX (Detail; ‘Medallion’ Only; BK 065) Button
Through the efforts of St. Louis IX, King of France, the Crown of Thorns believed to have been worn by Christ during His Passion came to Paris from Constantinople via the Venetians. Arriving at the coastal town of Sens, the Crown was received by the awestruck French monarch with great reverence and was later installed with solemn ceremonies in Notre Dame in a chapel St. Louis built especially to house it. + In this depiction, a haloed St. Louis wears his own golden crown and an ermine-lined mantle in dark aqua that is decorated with gold fleur de lis. Head bowed, he reverently carries the Crown of Thorns on a plump red cushion. The Crown itself emits spiked rays of light. The scene, confined in a ‘medallion’ or circular decorative device, takes place against a generic background of entwined swirls. + Epilog: Miraculously some would say, the Crown of Thorns survived both the French Revolution and the recent fire at Notre Dame on Monday, 15 April 2019. + Feast of St. Louis the King: August 25 + Image Credit (BK 065): Detail from an antique devotional print of St. Louis IX the King originally published by B. Kühlen, Mönchengladbach, Germany, late 19th century, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera.

I love the quality and the color and the design I got to customize them to the way I like my husband and I are different and it was really nice that I could custom mama instead of mommy or mom because I like to be called mama so that was nice and then I was able to make his big sisters to buttons as well so that was really nice. I love the design it’s simple it’s cute I can’t wait to wear them on my baby shower day.

The button was just as expected. My mother's smile was captured so beautifully. The size was just right and the colors we chose were bright. The print was nice and clear. A person ordering should just make sure the wording is lined up in the center before submitting
