Imperial Maltese Cross - Black Garnet

Description

A sneaky peak at the new unreleased Imperial Collection, inspired by pre-1900's communist military buttons and sovereign regalia in sterling silver, vermeil, and 14K.

Hand carved and cast sterling silver, four fleur-de-lis center an amazing faceted bullet of black melanite garnet (also available in blood red rhodalite garnet). The gemstone inspired the piece - the gorgeous facets catch the light like the rose window of an old medieval cathedral. The Maltese Cross, also known as a Crusaders Cross, is a gothic symbol of strength and worldliness, with each equal length point representing the four cardinal elements.

About 1.25 inches in diameter, the Maltese Cross hangs from hand dyed silk ribbon (included free) or for a bit extra, your preferred length of sterling cable chain. The chain is thick enough for men, fabulous on women - please contact me first for a reserve listing.

Arrives in a stylish RockLove giftbox.
