The Meaning of a Cross Pendant
The cross is one of the most meaningful symbols in jewelry, representing faith, protection and remembrance. Cross pendants are given for baptisms, confirmations, graduations and as everyday reminders of belief. They also work as elegant fashion pieces in modern minimalist designs, pairing well with our jewelry collection.
Styles and Materials
Cross pendants range from delicate silver and gold crosses to diamond pavé and gemstone-set designs. Classic styles include the Latin cross, the Celtic cross, the orthodox cross and modern geometric interpretations. Choose a sturdier chain for heavier crosses and a delicate cable or rope chain for lighter pieces.
