Rooted in deep tradition and radiant with sacred beauty, this two-tone Orthodox crucifix pendant expresses a powerful testament of faith. Crafted in 14K yellow and white gold, the design features a classic three-barred Orthodox cross in white gold, centered with a detailed crucifix of Christ bearing a halo. The upper bar represents the inscription above Christ’s head, while the slanted lower bar symbolizes the footrest, a distinctive feature of Eastern Christian iconography. The crucifix rests atop a magnificent yellow gold budded cross - its three-lobed ends symbolizing the Holy Trinity—framed by 79 white diamonds (0.30 total carat weight) that shimmer with reverence and grace. On the reverse, the traditional Slavic inscription "SPASI I SOCHRANI" - meaning “Save and Protect” - is engraved, offering a message of spiritual protection. A radiant and meaningful statement of devotion, this intricately designed pendant by Anbinder Jewelry arrives in a luxury gift box, ready to honor that special person of faith in your life.

For added versatility, pair it with a 14K gold chain in your preferred length (available for an additional cost).

The Orthodox Cross

The Orthodox cross, distinguished by its three horizontal bars, holds profound meaning in Eastern Christian tradition. The top bar represents the inscription placed above Christ’s head at the crucifixion: “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.” The middle bar marks the beam on which His hands were nailed. The slanted lower bar, symbolizing the footrest, is also seen as a sign of the narrow path to salvation—its upward tilt pointing toward eternal life. Rich in symbolism and sacred history, this unique form of the cross stands as a powerful emblem of Christ’s sacrifice and the promise of redemption.
