Hanging religious cross, crafted from carved mother-of-pearl and finished with openwork silver pieces. The silver figure of Christ stands out in the center, displaying great expressiveness and detail. These types of pieces were very popular in the first half of the 20th century, especially between 1930 and 1940, and were often used as a symbol of faith and spiritual protection.
The combination of mother-of-pearl, a symbol of purity and light, with silver, a metal associated with clarity and the moon, makes this cross a deeply symbolic piece. The openwork, neo-Gothic finishes give it an ornamental richness reminiscent of traditional liturgical jewelry.
This piece is ideal for both collectors of sacred art and those seeking a vintage accessory with spiritual and aesthetic significance. It can be worn as a pendant or as part of a locket.
