Complimentary U.S. shipping included.

This striking antique black mourning Maltese Cross necklace is a one-of-a-kind treasure. The bold, larger-sized cross commands attention while maintaining an air of solemn elegance. Suspended from a strand of faceted rutilated quartz beads, each gemstone reveals its own unique inclusions, making every bead distinct and captivating.

The eight points of the Maltese Cross carry profound symbolism: to live in truth, have faith, repent one’s sins, demonstrate humility, love justice, be merciful, act sincerely and wholeheartedly, and endure persecution. The cross has a few missing corners, small areas on the top carved layer, as shown. A powerful statement piece, it makes a remarkable addition to your curated jewelry collection.
