OUR MARIAN SHRINES
Our Marian shrines’ rustic details are carved into western red cedar, suitable for outdoor exposure. With yearly care, you can maintain the new wood appearance or let it age gracefully to a weathered silver cedar color. Prices include shipping & handling. Please allow at least four weeks for delivery.
Marian Statue Shrine
The shrine is our artistic interpretation of similar Marian shrines seen in European countries, especially France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Similar Marian shrines often in stone are also found in Ireland and the Eastern European countries. The design on the shrine front is made to pay honor to the beauty of our Blessed Mother. The shrine shape brings one to think of the grotto of Lourdes. The unique shape of the roof reminds us of the veil of our Blessed Mother. The roof is uniquely hand made in our Indiana shop of beaten heavy gauge copper. The natural heat tempered patina of the copper will continually change over the years. This Marian shrine comes with our selection of statue, which currently is a 10 inch resin statue of Immaculate Heart of Mary from the Joseph Studio Collection. The shrine, 12 inches by 15, is ready to mount on top of your own post or one of our posts.
We apply a UV protective coating onto each statue to reduce the affects of weather and sunlight exposure upon the statue when placed outdoors.

The front barge board is carved with a humble floral design. The standard prayer plate reads "Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy! Pray for us" . We apply a UV protective coating onto each statue to reduce the affects of weather and sunlight exposure upon the statue when placed outdoors.
