Cross Pendant with 21 Natural Diamond in 18K Gold

A cross in 18K gold, set with twenty-one natural diamonds — the symbol at small scale, in fine jewelry register.

The cross is among the most universally recognized forms in jewelry, and the simplest — two lines, one intersection. At small scale and in fine materials, it carries personal devotion without monumentality.

This cross in 18K yellow gold is two centimeters tall, set with twenty-one natural diamonds (1.35 mm each) along the four arms. The diamonds line the form precisely; the gold carries them; the cross reads as illuminated rather than ornamented.

At 1 gram, the pendant is among the lightest in the fine jewelry category — small enough for daily wear, present enough to register on the chain.
