Handmade in the novel studio using ground minerals and a proprietary technique, this gorgeous intaglio represents Joan of Arc "Maid of Orleans".  The heroine of France for her role in the Hundreds’ year war, was named a saint in 1920.  She was only 19 yrs. old when she died in Rouen, France.

Her Feast Day is May 30.
