Striped Onyx Cross Necklace
$660.00
This unique One-of-a-Kind cross necklace is approx. 34” long. It is on the heavy side, 1lb, but it feels really good on!
The cross is an antique Ethiopian Coptic cross, and is 5”x3 ½”. For over 1600 years, Christian Ethiopians have worn their crosses as a sign of their faith. Each town or province had its own distinct design.
The onyx beads are gorgeous and have the coloring of smokey quartz, with stripes, or bands, of lighter shades. The large silver bicones are antiques and from Mali. The pits and patina of these are beautiful, and they must have a long and interesting history. All the findings are sterling silver.
Hand crafted in the USA with imported materials.
