1 7/8" Coptic Cross Pendant Antique Vintage Model CR673

1 7/8" Coptic Cross Pendant (48mm)

This Coptic Cross Pendant measures 1 7/8 inches (approximately 48mm) in height and is an exact replica of an antique or vintage piece, available in sterling silver and gold bronze.

The cross is rectangular and elongated in form, with short, slightly flared arms that create a compact yet commanding silhouette. One side of the Coptic Cross Pendant is deeply engraved with a bold linear pattern, composed of vertical and horizontal cuts intersected by rhythmic zigzagging lines. This pattern evokes the primitive strength and sacred geometry characteristic of early Christian Coptic art.

The reverse side of the cross displays a softer, more eroded engraving, with flowing, almost abstract lines suggesting wings, a figure, or sacred energy. The dual sides give the Coptic Cross Pendant a dynamic character, combining powerful linear structure with organic movement.

The surface of the cross pendant is textured and slightly irregular, intentionally preserving the appearance of ancient hand-crafting techniques used in early Christian communities in Egypt and Ethiopia. The visible tool marks and asymmetry add authenticity and spiritual depth to the piece.

The style of this antique cross reflects early Coptic Christian devotional art, known for its symbolic abstraction, strong lines, and profound spiritual meaning expressed through simple forms.

The Coptic Cross Pendant includes a substantial, integrated bail at the top, allowing it to be worn as a standalone pendant, incorporated into prayer jewelry, or used in devotional crafts.

This cross charm stands as a symbol of enduring faith, resilience, and sacred continuity, making it a meaningful addition to any collection of spiritual jewelry. Choose sterling silver for a luminous, traditional finish, or gold bronze for a warm, timeworn look that honors the ancient origins of the design.
