Inverted Religious Charm Sterling Silver | St Peters Cross | Made in USA

The lost-wax casting process dates back 6,500 years to ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome — the same technique used to create this charm. After the wax is burned out at 1,350 degrees, molten sterling silver fills the mold under centrifugal force.

The inverted cross — also called the Cross of St. Peter — originates from the tradition that the apostle Peter requested to be crucified upside down, feeling unworthy to die in the same manner as Christ. This 3D charm measures 1 1/4" x 3/4" and presents the form without embellishment, letting the symbol speak for itself.

Makes a meaningful gift for a confirmation, baptism, first communion, or any expression of faith. Wear it on a charm bracelet, hang it from a necklace chain, or buy two and pair with ear wires for earrings. Ships within one business day with a sterling silver jump ring attached and ready to use.
