  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    A sacred heart pendant is a pendant that displays a symbol from Christianity called the Sacred Heart of Jesus. For Christians, the religious symbol is a heart wrapped with thorns that represents Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross. In some cases, flames or rays of light surround the heart, or a cross may appear above it. Find a variety of sacred heart pendants on 1stDibs.
