2 1/2" Ancient Benediction Pendant Large (63.5 mm) – Antique Replica in Sterling Silver or Gold Bronze

This Ancient Benediction Pendant Large measures approximately 2 1/2 inches (63.5 mm) in height and is an exact replica of a very old antique piece, faithfully recreated in sterling silver or gold bronze. Solidly constructed and weighty, it carries the presence and devotional meaning associated with early sacred art.

The piece is a Latin Cross form with slightly flared arms, featuring at its center a solemn figure of Christ in the Orans (prayer) posture, hands uplifted in blessing. The figure is modeled in a formal, front-facing pose, adorned in an elaborately patterned robe and crowned by a radiating nimbus, emphasizing His divine authority.

Originally created in a style that reflects late medieval to early Renaissance devotional art, this design emphasizes spiritual symbolism over realism. The bold, iconic modeling, rugged texture, and powerful presence suggest a piece made for deep personal devotion or ceremonial use, where the emphasis was on the sacred rather than the naturalistic.

This Ancient Benediction Pendant is ideal for wearing as a prominent pectoral cross, incorporating into devotional collections, or treasuring as a lasting emblem of divine blessing and sacred protection.

Its ancient devotional cross design honors the enduring traditions of early Christian faith, offering a timeless symbol of spiritual strength, prayer, and blessing.
