One of our classic (and favorite) combos is to pair two of our favorite saints, Christopher and Theresa.
A vintage silvertone blue enamel St. Teresa is the prettiest backdrop for the gold St. Christopher, which is about the size of a dime.

St. Therese, a 19th-century saint, is also known as “The Little Flower”. She achieved sainthood by practicing “The Little Way”, every day acts of kindness and love. One of our favorite quotes by Therese is “I want to spend my Heaven doing good on Earth”, reminding the wearer that small acts of kindness in daily life often leave the biggest impressions.
