St. Nicholas of Myra (c.270–343 AD) is one of the most beloved saints in the history of the Catholic Church — and the real person behind Santa Claus. Born into a wealthy family in what is now Turkey, he gave his entire inheritance to the poor and dedicated his life to God as Bishop of Myra. His feast day is December 6.
St. Nicholas is patron of children, sailors, the Navy, merchants, travelers, bakers, and those falsely accused. His medals are a meaningful gift for children's sacraments, for sailors and those who travel by sea, and for anyone devoted to his extraordinary legacy of generosity and miraculous intercession.
Our St. Nicholas medals are handcrafted in the USA by Bliss Manufacturing in sterling silver, gold-filled, and 14K solid gold — each with a limited lifetime guarantee.
