Description: Vintage solid sterling silver medium-sized fine (approx. 1 3/16" tall with bale and jump ring; weight approx. 0.9 g) Orthodox Crucifix pendant featuring classic Slavonic Orthodox "budded" shape with hand-engraved design of the Savior's Cross and a high-relief detailed iconic depiction of the Crucified Savior. The reverse bears an engraved inscription of the traditional Slavonic Orthodox prayer meaning "Save and Protect" incorporated into the horizontal crossbar, whereas the vertical crossbar is filled with a Slavic-style ornament. The prayer reminds us that Christ the Savior is with us to save and protect a person wearing the cross from every evil and all enemies visible and invisible. The large soldered jump ring of the pendant bears two punch marks, one of which displays the "925" hallmark indicating the "sterling" purity. The pendant has vintage appearance with some signs of aging and wear that might include diminished quality of the artwork, deformations of its original shape, scratches, dents, and patches of discoloration/patina. Most of the original dark patina has been removed using gentle cleaning and polishing. The size and weight of the item are shown on the photographs for this listing.
