Greek Folklore & Ecclesiastical Tradition — Handcrafted Ceramic Garlic Pendant Charm with Horseshoe Motif, Christian Saint Medallion & Metal Chain - 4 cm / 7 cm (1.57 in / 2.76 in)

Celebrate classic Greek folk heritage and Christian iconography with this handcrafted decorative garlic bulb pendant (σκόρδο διακοσμητικό). In Mediterranean tradition, decorative garlic and classic horseshoe motifs have long served as cultural symbols of domestic hospitality, agricultural abundance, and welcoming home decor. This compact charm is fitted with an integrated metal chain, folk accents, and a choice of two historic Christian devotional medallions: the Virgin Mary (Panagia) with the Cross on the reverse, or Saint Christopher (patron saint of travelers) with the Cross on the reverse. Suitable for year-round display, it functions gracefully as a keychain pendant, vehicle rear-view mirror accessory, or home entryway wall accent.

*Note: The price listed is for one (1) single decorative garlic charm. Please select your preferred medallion design variant (Virgin Mary or Saint Christopher) prior to checkout. Any keys, bags, or background accessories shown in photography are for display purposes only.
