Early Victorian 18ct Gold & Rock Crystal Cross

199U
200 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A stunningly beautiful 18ct gold and rock crystal cross that was made circa 1840.  The natural rock crystal has been cut in various pear shapes and cushion cuts. The Christian church has always used rock crystal, a colourless form of quartz and the symbol of purity.  For Christians, light penetrating rock crystal is traditionally symbolic of the Immaculate Conception.  A wonderful cross to wear that is not only meaningful but looks amazing.
