St. Catherine of Alexandria Jewelry and Collectables

Catherine (287-305) converted to Christianity during the reign and persecutions of Emperor Maximinus, who imprisoned and tortured her for her faith. Despite their attempts, every one who came to convince her to abandon her faith ended up converting. Initially condemned to die on the spiked wheel, a single touch from her destroyed the wheel, leading to her beheading.
