Featured New addition to my cross collection - french jet cross pendant!

Found it on ebay, seller listing as Whitby jet, still good price for such a large example of french jet
I thought it would go well with my other black glass chain, but unfortunately that loop was designed for ribbon only

 

Yay! Big! It looks fabulous the way you wear it
After decades of non buying crosses as an atheist... I'm now hoarding them

 

They are always a box ticked for me

 

Yeah, I'm not a cross person either. But I do have a cool rosary in my collection, just 'cause it was pretty!

 

It is a stunner!

Because they were made as religious items, they were made by so many different cultures and periods and in so many different styles, that they are a joolie's dream.

 

And aesthetically pleasing for their portion, symmetry and variation

 

That too.

 

Kyratango, idem here. Atheist and years of not buying crosses, and now I have a hoard. And wearing them constantly
This one is really drool-worthy!
I usually wear them on a long chain, but at your age/my teenage daughters age it looks lovely close to the neck

 

It depends! The delicate ones would go well for a chocker, but for bigger and bolder ones a long chain wrapped twice or more is ideal for a grand display!

 

An interesting condor, Kyra...fully how things evolve, ain't it?

 

Not to mention how things migrate. I still remember shipping a Zuni-made cross to Singapore. It was what they called a dragonfly cross, a Lorraine cross to y'all Europeans if I remember correctly.
