These milagros pendants were created by hand by two artists in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. The milagros are each unique and open to reveal a hidden locket. For Elizabeth, the combination of the milagros and the locket was an instant connection between these artists and ExVoto. She developed a fast friendship with the artists. That moment when you look at a stranger from another culture and realize, “you too?”
Milagros, meaning “miracles" in Spanish, are small religious folk charms found throughout Mexico. The Heart Milagro (also known as the Sacred Heart) represents love, healing and gratitude. The Milagros is often created, worn, nailed to a cross, or gifted to another as one is praying for a miracle. When a prayer is answered, an ex Voto is created as a testament of gratitude for the answered prayer. Elizabeth designed necklaces for each pendant creating a bridge between the artists in Mexico and the US, and the milagro and an ExVoto.
The ExVoto Vintage collection is made in the USA.
Each ExVoto piece comes with our velvet drawstring dust bag for travel.

A Testament of Gratitude
"In 2009, I created ExVoto, which means a testament of gratitude, as a form of creative therapy after my youngest daughter passed away from a brain tumor. Today, as from the beginning, a portion of each ExVoto sale goes to The Cure Starts Now Foundation for pediatric brain cancer research.
Uniting powerful stories from the past and present, ExVoto specializes in timeless jewelry to encourage conversation, gratitude and inspire a creative spirit."
