About the Item

This beautiful and original silver cross was handcrafted in the second half of the 18th century, in the 1770's. The jewel is set with old mine rose diamonds in closed settings. From a bow shaped slide a cross is suspended. The large drop shaped element at the bottom of the cross is articulated. Four arrow shafts arranged as an X or St. Andrews cross lead away from the diamond in the center. The slide is impressed with the French swan mark, a swan facing to the left. This mark, in use since 1st July 1893, was used for pieces with the legal standard of fineness but unknown origin. (TARDY, INTERNATIONAL HALLMARKS ON SILVER, page 208)

Antique Silver and 14K Gold Cross Pendant with Rose-Cut Diamonds, Circa 1850
Located in Rotterdam, NL
This elegant antique cross pendant is a refined example of mid-19th century devotional jewelry, dating to around circa 1850, and crafted in silver with a 14 karat yellow gold backing. The front of the cross is delicately set with a total of 12 rose-cut diamonds, arranged in a scalloped border pattern that enhances their subtle sparkle. Each stone is securely set in silver, as was customary in the era to best reflect the light from candlelit interiors. The reverse of the pendant features beautifully detailed engraved flower motifs in relief, adding an additional layer of craftsmanship and making the back as decorative as the front — a feature often seen in early European cross pendants. Materials: Silver front, 14K yellow gold reverse Gemstones: Rose-cut diamonds Dimensions: 45 mm x 25 mm Weight: 5.4 grams Origin: Likely Dutch or Northern European Period: Mid-19th century (circa 1850) Condition: Excellent antique condition with fine patina and minor wear consistent with age This pendant is both a spiritual and artistic treasure, perfect for collectors of antique religious jewelry...
