Description
Silver pendant cross with garnet and amethysts, 20th century
Sterling silver (925), crafted using traditional goldsmithing techniques with relief work and stone setting. Measures 5.5 x 3.0 cm; weight 8.3 g. This large, elegantly sized pendant cross is structured with gently contoured arms and a slightly convex surface that adds visual depth. A natural, oval-cut garnet, set in a cabochon, sits at its centre, serving as the piece's chromatic and compositional axis. Three natural amethysts, also set, flank the cross, balancing the overall design with contrasting violet tones and a symmetrical arrangement. The decoration is completed with meticulous granulation and perimeter reliefs, reinforcing the ornamental character and demonstrating careful craftsmanship. The silver finish has a uniform luster that enhances the volumes and decorative details. The hallmarks certify the 925 sterling silver. This is a cross conceived both as a personal jewel and as an object of symbolic meaning, where material wealth and goldsmithing work take centre stage.
