Please visit our blog (be sure to click on the "older posts" link at the bottom of the page) for more information on this cross, made from two pieces of 18-gauge sterling wire. The cross piece is wrapped around the staff wire and soldered into place. Hammered ends have holes first punched, then given a patina* to create the black color contrast. Tenara™ thread for the cord is chosen for strength and also for looks, as it visually reinforces the delicate lines of the cross and does not overpower it. Finished with a complementary and functional toggle clasp, the pendant is about 1.75 inches tall. Necklace: 18 inches, or, if you prefer a different length, please include that in the comments section at checkout. Made by Shauna.

* 'Patina' refers to color rendered to metal; in this case, liver of sulfur is brushed on and allowed to darken the silver then is polished away, leaving dark color in the recesses.

Price: $28.00
