St. Elmo is patron of Childbirth and Stomach Diseases. Memorial: Jun 2. Also known as Erasmus, Saint Elmo fled from Italy during Diocletian’s persecutions. When found, Elmo was set on fire, which can be linked to the phenomenon “Saint Elmo’s fire” that is named for him. He was one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, protecting domestic animals.
Made in the USA. Details on jewelry may vary, dependent on size of medal chosen. "14K Gold Filled" refers to a process by which gold is bonded to a base medal, with a much higher gold content than Gold Plate. It is considered a life-time product, as the gold layer will not quickly wear off, as it will in electroplated products.
