124 Order of Christ.

This silver breast star to the order features a center medallion with a separately applied Heart of Jesus decoration in gold and enamel. The obverse features a separately applied golden cross of Jesus with the medallion's ring finely chased and crafted. Very attractive example from the middle half of the 19th century. Interestingly, the cross over the heart of Jesus is a separately applied chased silver plate. Reverse features pin.                 1-2
