Among the most iconic medals, the Chi-Rho holds a special place. Both discreet and full of meaning, it has spanned centuries, carrying a universal message: that of faith and light.
The Chi-Rho, also known as the Christogram, has its roots in the early centuries of Christianity. It is formed from the first two Greek letters of the word "Christ": X (Chi) and P (Rho).
This sign was used by early Christians to affirm their faith, often engraved on the walls of catacombs or on liturgical objects. It became a symbol of victory and light, representing the resurrected Christ.

Wearing a Chi-Rho medal is a true sign of faith, recalling one's belonging to the Christian community. A universal symbol of protection, it evokes peace and hope, and remains a precious guide for the wearer.
This medal is often chosen for baptism, as it embodies the promise of a life guided by faith, but it can also be offered for other religious ceremonies such as First Communion or Confirmation.
Our Becker Chi-Rho medal represents one of the flagship models in our collection thanks to its elegant reproduction of this sacred symbol.
