An "ex-voto heart" is a symbolic object offered as a sign of gratitude, devotion or thanks following a grace, healing or favor obtained. These hearts are usually offered in a religious or spiritual context, and have a long history in many cultures around the world.
The ex-voto itself can take many forms, but the "ex-voto heart" is specifically designed to represent the heart as a symbol of emotion and life. These hearts are often made of metal, wood or wax, and are sometimes decorated with inscriptions, images, symbolic colors or details relating to the grace received.
The act of offering an ex-voto, including the ex-voto heart, is a way for believers to show their gratitude to a deity or saint for answering their prayers or granting a favor. These objects can be hung in places of worship, such as churches, chapels or shrines, or kept as sacred objects in the home.
