Religious Cross Jewelry

Religious Cross Jewelry

Sterling silver religious cross jewelry is a great way to make a solid fashionable Christian statement. Religious jewelry in America is primarily made up of Cross jewelry. Of course, Cross necklaces is the mainstay of sterling silver cross jewelry.

The collection of sterling silver cross necklaces is huge in the ratail market and especially at HandCraftedCollectibles.com (HCC). They have the largest single collection of sterling silver cross necklaces.

The sterling silver cross necklace has so many variations and styles that I thought it would be a good idea to highlight some of the different cross necklaces. All of these cross necklaces are made from a sterling silver cross pendant.

Along with all the silver cross necklaces they have a huge sterling silver cross pendant collection. From the sterling silver cross pendant comes both Christian necklaces and Cross necklaces.

The highlights in this cross jewelry blog are the following:

The Maltese cross necklace. This is a popular old style cross necklace. Surprisingly hard to find but HCC has a few styles of the Maltese cross necklace.

This Maltese cross pendant has a decorative wreath of flowers around the center.

The Budded cross necklace is very similar to the Fleur de Lis cross pendant. The Budded cross can be in many different kinds of cross necklaces as long as the endcaps have three buds coming out. The buds are sometimes considered a three leaf clover but in truth the buds represent three of the discples of the Lord. There are four endcaps and so that means there is a total of twelve buds. This cross is also referred to in some cicrcles as the disciples cross necklace.

The Fleur de Lis Cross necklace is very similer to the Budded cross or Disciples cross necklace because the Fleur de Lis symbol as a elegant french symbol which has a type of a bud at the bottom of the fleur de lis. The Fleur de Lis is called the Lilly of France.

This fleur de lis cross necklace is a cross formed by four Fleur de Lis symbols.

 

This Fleur de lis cross necklace uses the bottom portion of the fleur de Lis symbol to decorate the end caps of the cross pendant:

 

 

This Fleur de Lis cross looks like a Budded cross necklace or a Disciples cross necklace with the bottom half of the Fleur de Lis being used. Generally the Budded cross pendant is more rounded and the Fleur de Lis cross necklaces are more sharp in design.
