Prayer Card - Ave Maria
Handcrafted Ave Maria (Latin Hail Mary) Birchwood Prayer Card
Seek the intercession of the Blessed Virgin with this Handcrafted Ave Maria Birchwood Prayer Card, a devotional keepsake crafted with reverence by Holy Hearth in Perth, Western Australia. As a devoted Catholic craftsman, I infuse each piece with faith and artistry, using light, durable birchwood to create a portable yet enduring tribute to Mary, the Theotokos—Mother of God—whose loving presence guides us to her Son.
The front of this prayer card features a laser-etched depiction of the Blessed Mary, a sacred image I’ve carefully crafted by harmonising traditional iconography into a serene portrayal of the Theotokos, her hands folded in prayer and her head adorned with a halo of divine light. A small Holy Hearth watermark is subtly etched on this artwork side, affirming its authenticity. The laser etching creates a striking, almost 3D-like effect, with the interplay of light and shadow accentuating the physical variations in the wood grain, bringing Mary’s gentle grace to life with a tactile depth that invites contemplation. On the back, the Ave Maria prayer in Latin is etched with devotion: “Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum; Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.” This timeless prayer, a cornerstone of Marian devotion, calls upon Mary’s intercession in life and at the hour of death. Below the prayer, the Jerusalem Cross stands as a symbol of Christ’s universal mission, its four smaller crosses representing the spread of the Gospel to the four corners of the earth, a reminder of Mary’s role in salvation history.
Each card is finished with a light coat of varnish to seal the intricate etch work, ensuring the artwork remains vibrant and intact over time. Unlike traditional ink, the laser-etched design won’t rub off or fade, making this prayer card a lasting companion for daily devotion, whether carried in your pocket, tucked into a rosary case, or held during moments of prayer. The sturdy birchwood, known for its resilience and smooth texture, ensures this piece can withstand the test of time, becoming a cherished heirloom for generations.
