Hand carved and cast sterling silver, four fleur-de-lis center an amazing faceted bullet of blood red rhodalite garnet (also available in black melanite garnet). The gemstone inspired this piece - Just like the old medieval cathedrals in Italy (where she did her jewelry apprenticeship), the unique rose facets catch the light like a stained glass window. 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 sterling cable chain.
