This cross is in good condition. It is marked "Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Saint-Jacut" on the back. It is not punctured but was tested.
A note: small repair mark on the top of the ring of the cross, micro-scratches and normal wear see photos.
* The daily spectacle of moral and spiritual ruins accumulated by the French Revolution of 1789 took root in the heart of a woman, Angelique Le Sourd, the desire to devote his life to remedy them, helping priests to revive faith and restore morals. Thus, April 25, 1816, she decided with three companions to live together in St. Jacut, a small town of Morbihan, to be able to do good around them by sharing their resources and abilities. Thus was born the Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. From the beginning, the sisters devoted themselves in education, care of the sick, the local church service, and listening to all distress.
