{"product_id":"hand-cast-solid-brass-st-michael-plaque-christian-home-altar-icon","title":"Hand-Cast Solid Brass St. Michael Plaque – Christian Home Altar Icon","description":"This St. Michael the Archangel brass plaque is a hand-cast devotional piece, made using traditional casting methods that leave each plaque with its own character, texture, and weight.\n\nSt. Michael is depicted in relief as the heavenly warrior—staff in hand, foot planted over the defeated enemy—an image long associated with protection, courage, and spiritual vigilance. The rough, organic surface is intentional, echoing ancient iconography and early Christian metalwork rather than polished factory décor.\n\nEach plaque is cast, finished, and darkened by hand. No two are exactly alike.\n\nThis is a piece meant for:\n\t•\ta home prayer corner or altar\n\t•\ta wall display\n\t•\ta desk or shelf reminder of faith and resolve\n\t•\ta meaningful gift for confirmations, clergy, veterans, or spiritual milestones\n\n⸻\n\nDetails\n\t•\tMaterial: Solid cast brass\n\t•\tFinish: Hand-darkened with natural highlights (no paint or plating)\n\t•\tStyle: Raised relief \/ sculptural icon\n\t•\tThickness \u0026amp; Weight: Substantial, heavy feel\n\t•\tMounting: Flat back (can be wall-mounted or displayed on a shelf)\n\t•\tHandmade: Each piece will vary slightly in tone and texture\n\n⸻\n\nWhy This Piece Is Different\n\t•\tCast by hand, not stamped or mass-produced\n\t•\tIntentionally raw, ancient aesthetic\n\t•\tDesigned to age beautifully over time\n\t•\tFaith-forward without being decorative or sentimental\n\nThis is not a decorative trinket. It’s a devotional object—meant to be lived with.\n\n⸻\n\nCare\n\nBrass will naturally deepen in color over time. If you prefer a brighter finish, it can be lightly polished; if left untouched, it will continue to develop a rich patina.\n\n⸻\n\nPerfect For\n\t•\tCatholic \u0026amp; Orthodox homes\n\t•\tPrayer corners \u0026amp; home altars\n\t•\tSpiritual warfare devotion\n\t•\tClergy, converts, confirmations, and sacramental gifts","brand":"The Fat Tree Handcrafted Goods ","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":48242012848298,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":48242012881066,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":48242012913834,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/5736\/8490\/files\/1bd415fd-il_fullxfull.7680728794_1r4k.jpg?v=1776945817","url":"https:\/\/thefattree.com\/products\/hand-cast-solid-brass-st-michael-plaque-christian-home-altar-icon","provider":"The Fat Tree Handcrafted Goods ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
