Ethiopian Cross Pendant, Small F

Ethiopian Cross Pendant, Small F

    • Ethiopian Cross Pendant, Small F
    • Small crossesĀ worn on the neckĀ have been part of Ethiopian culture and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church for hundreds of years. HistoricallyĀ made from wood, bone, leather and carved stone, the 19th century saw the use ofĀ silver coins and silver alloy metals becomeĀ theĀ more popular tradition. In early examples,Ā crosses were simply cut from large coins such as the Maria Theresa Thaler (Dollar) or the Emperor Menelik Dollar.
    • More commonly, the silver coins were melted down and a neck cross was cast in the lost wax method. Old crosses often incorporate a circle into the motif, often at the center of the cross. The circle is believed to represent the Eternal and Everlasting Love of God, as shown through Christ's Crucifixion, Christ's Halo and Resurrection.
    • Approx. 1 3/4" x 1"
