9kt Yellow Gold Ruby and Diamond Cross Pendant

A rare and historically significant mid-19th century Italian cross pendant, meticulously crafted in 22 karat yellow gold and intricately decorated with fine micro mosaic work. Made in the Papal workshops of the Vatican, the pendant is stamped with the Vatican mark—denoting its origin from ecclesiastical ateliers under direct Papal patronage. The cross features a highly detailed micro mosaic scene at its centre, depicting two cherubic angel heads amid clouds, flanked by intricate star-pointed terminals adorned with Christian iconography and floral motifs. The craftsmanship is extraordinary, with thousands of minute tesserae forming vibrant patterns in rich blues, whites, and reds. A large, ridged gold bail with fine beading accommodates a substantial chain or cord. The reverse is closed with a protective glass compartment (original to the piece), likely intended for a relic or devotional image, preserving its devotional function.
