Mariners Cross Charm | Sterling | Seamans Religious Charm | Made in USA

The Mariner's Cross -- also called the anchor cross -- has guided seafarers in faith since early Christianity, now cast in .925 sterling silver and Made in USA. At 4.3 grams, this is a substantial charm that carries real weight on a bracelet or chain.

Created through lost-wax casting and hand-finished to a mirror polish, the solid sterling silver has a coolness and heft that hollow imports simply cannot replicate. Measuring 1 1/8" x 1", the anchor-shaped cross shows the distinctive combination of a Christian cross with nautical anchor elements.

Early Christians used the anchor cross as a secret symbol during Roman persecution -- it concealed the cross within the shape of an anchor, allowing believers to identify each other without detection. The symbol later became the emblem of hope referenced in Hebrews 6:19.

A meaningful gift for sailors, coast guard members, naval personnel, or anyone whose faith is anchored in both the spiritual and the maritime. Includes a sterling silver jump ring attached and ready to wear.
