Oval Angel Medallion Charm

This appears to be an oval-shaped medallion or charm, crafted from a silver-toned metal, possibly pewter, sterling silver, or an alloy. The item is handheld, resting in the palm, suggesting a small size, likely less than an inch in length. The primary feature is a raised, bas-relief depiction of an angel, rendered in a simple, stylized manner. The angel figure is shown facing left, with outstretched wings, wearing a flowing gown, and seemingly in a posture of reverence or prayer. The details of the angel's face and hands are not distinctly visible, suggesting either a high degree of wear or an intentional minimalist design. The surface of the medallion exhibits a somewhat irregular, slightly mottled texture, with some areas appearing shinier than others, which could indicate polishing, natural wear, or the characteristics of the metal itself. There are no obvious maker's marks or signatures discernible from the image. The edges of the medallion appear relatively smooth, but the overall impression suggests it has been handled, possibly worn as a charm or pendant, given the slight dullness and minor surface abrasions. The style is relatively timeless, making it difficult to firmly establish an age without additional context or markings, but it could range from mid-20th century to contemporary. The craftsmanship, while not intricately detailed, conveys the angelic form effectively, characteristic of mass-produced religious or devotional items.
