Slim Cross Pendant in 18K Gold

A slim cross — palito — in 18K gold, at minimal width.

The palito cross — slim cross — is the most reduced form the symbol takes in jewelry. The width is minimized; the verticality is emphasized. The cross becomes a line that crosses another line, with no visual mass added beyond what the geometry requires.

This pendant uses 18K yellow gold at 0.7 grams to render that minimal form. The polished finish keeps the surface clean; the slimness keeps the pendant in the daily-wear category, not the statement category.

A cross for those who want the symbol as a quiet line rather than a declared form.

Ricca Jewelry. 18K gold. The cross, at its slimmest.
