The face of this cross has a dark, flat finish, but its squared-off edges are polished to a mirror shine. As you move, it’s those bright silver edges that catch the light, outlining the shape against your shirt.

This is a substantial cross, measuring 7cm long by 3.5cm wide. It's built from a solid, 3.5mm thick block of silver, so it has a noticeable weight. The design uses contrast: the front and back surfaces are a flat, dark grey, while the sides are highly polished, bright silver. The bail that holds the chain is a simple, tapered shape that matches the polished finish of the sides.

We cast this charm from solid 925 sterling silver, which means it's 92.5% pure silver blended with other metals for hardness and durability. It’s not hollow or plated, so it feels solid in your hand and has the heft you'd expect. The dark, non-reflective finish on the face is designed to be engraved, providing a clean surface for personalization that won't compete with a high-polish shine.

Most crosses are either uniformly polished or have an old-world, intricate design. This one is different because of its scale and clean, architectural lines. At 7cm long, it has a real presence, and the two-tone finish gives it a modern look that you don't see very often.
