Peridot has long been thought to symbolize love, truth, faithfulness and loyalty. They are one of the few gemstones that occur in only one color. The clear yellow green hue evokes images of Spring and new life.
Crosses have been worn as symbols of Christianity for thousands of years, and the nineteenth century saw a surge of popularity in this motif with the Church being held in absolute regard, and piety cherished above all. The custom of wearing a cross pendant has remained in vogue ever since.
Crafted in Sterling silver, this eye-catching cross pendant is set with six glowing square cabochon peridot stones. Etruscan Revival boules and braiding accent the face, while the back is closed. A nice piece that will remind you of Spring and new life every time you wear it!
