Antique "Watch and Pray" Athletics Medal Pendant celestial emerald and amethystDATE: Art Deco, c. 1927 This cool and unusual enamel medal pendant was awarded to "Athletic Champion" Walter Scott from Innerleithen School (Scotland) in 1928.

D 737 seemed impossible, until I came across an article that explained that he was patron saint of the Scottish town of Innerleithen! Watch and Pray
