Description
Latin America, Mexico, 20th century CE. A fine milagro in the form of a heart pierced by seven daggers with organic veins adorning the surface.

The faithful attach them to altars, shrines, and sacred objects such as church bells found in places of worship. 1.5 oz. Size: 4"H x 5"W (10.2 cm x 12.7 cm).
