In Spanish 'milagro' literaly means 'miracle' these religious folk charms are traditionally used to heal an ailment, or in gratitude for prayers answered. Milagros come in many shapes and sizes, often parts of the body or organs especially the heart. The charms can be flat or three dimensional and made from gold, silver, tin, lead, wood, bone or wax.
