Description: Orthodox budded cross pendant necklace. Black enamel, silver tone alloy. New. Orthodox Cross necklace. Front is black enamel with silver-color design. The Cross's details are "cloisonné" effect--die-struck and then enamel coloring is applied by hand. The color sits lower than the raised metal lines, creating the Cross's design. Over it is a clear epoxy coating which will make it durable and protect the enamel. The back is bright silver-color with a Cyrillic raised-lettering blessing, and raised borders.This is not a cheap flimsy metal pendant, it is nicely manufactured and "hefty"; about the thickness of a United States quarter coin.The chain is an 18-inch cable chain with a 2-inch extension piece, and lobster clasp. Everything is tight with no weakening, and works as designed. The chain and shiny metal parts are all silver-color; any dark or light areas on them in the pictures are reflections from the surroundings/lighting. A great addition for your collection, or a nice gift for someone that you know. Thanks for looking; message through Ebay with any questions. brief description of symbolism on Cross: The front of the cross pendant bears a Byzantine-like three-bar Subpedaneum cross and inscriptions in Church Slavonic. The three-bar cross is used in the Eastern Orthodox and some Eastern Catholic churches. Such a cross has three horizontal crossbeams: the top one represents the "INRI" nameplate, and the bottom one, a footrest. The footrest crossbeam is depicted pointing up, toward Heaven, on Christ's right-hand side where the Penitent thief, St. Dismas was crucified on the right. The top end of the cross is an abbreviation in Church Slavonic which means "King of Glory". The left and right side ends of the central horizontal crossbar of the pendant have the Sacred Name of Jesus Christ; IC inscribed as the Greek Christogram. The "XC", Greek Christogram, a two-word abbreviation in Church Slavonic meaning "SON OF GOD". The back has Cyrillic writing, roughly translated to mean "Save and Protect" or "Bless and Save".
