This small Celtic cross necklace is made of sterling silver and carries the sterling hallmark of quality on its reverse side. With a traditional design, this 1/2 inch sterling silver Celtic cross is easily distinguished by a ring which intersects the crossbar and upright shaft of the cross itself. The ring on the cross symbolizes eternity. The Celtic region refers to Brittany, Wales, Ireland, and the Scottish Highlands, but many people outside these heritage groups find Celtic jewelry beautiful and wearable. Comes beautifully packaged in a velvet texture hinged jewelry box.
