Equal Cross Charm Sterling Silver | Religious Jewelry | Made in USA
The Equal Cross -- also called the Greek Cross -- with its arms of identical length, cast in .925 sterling silver and Made in USA. At 3.5 grams and measuring 0.81" x 1", this is a weighty, substantial charm with clean geometric lines.
Lost-wax casting produces the cross's symmetrical form in solid sterling silver, followed by hand-finishing from rough filing through tripoli compound to a final rouge polish. The solid construction means this charm has a satisfying heft -- heavier means more real silver.
The equal-armed cross predates Christianity, appearing in ancient cultures from Mesopotamia to the Americas. In Christian tradition, the Greek Cross represents the balance and equality of the four Gospels. It remains the preferred cross form in Eastern Orthodox churches.
Suited for Orthodox Christians, geometry enthusiasts, minimalist jewelry wearers, or anyone who prefers the balanced simplicity of the equal cross over more ornate forms. Arrives with a sterling silver jump ring attached.
