About this piece
This is a devotional piece of real substance: sterling silver filigree work of the kind that demands patience and skill. The cross is built from delicate openwork panels—each arm and the central stem composed of scrolling, interlocking motifs—outlined in twisted wire and finished with fine beading or granulation along the edges. The figure of Christ is carefully modelled at the centre, rendered with genuine attention to anatomical detail.
The hallmark 925 confirms the silver content. The patina visible in the photographs is natural ageing; the jump ring shows slight wear consistent with a well-loved pendant that has been worn and handled over many years. At approximately 3.8 cm long including the bail, it is a modest, wearable size—substantial enough to catch light without dominating the chest. It will hang beautifully on a chain of your choice, which can be selected to suit your own taste. Store it away from moisture and polish gently with a soft cloth when needed.
