This magnificent estate gold-filled Indian enamel cross pendant is a breathtaking example of traditional Indian jewelry craftsmanship, measuring an impressive 3" x 2" and weighing a substantial 10.4 grams, featuring three-dimensional floral motifs at the center and on the bail, throughout filled with vibrant polychrome enamel in a rich array of colors. The 6mm bail opening accommodates a variety of chain widths for versatile wearing options. Please note: a broken wire is present near the bottom of the cross and minor enamel loss is noted — this piece is offered as-is at a price reflecting these characteristics.
The combination of Indian meenakari enamel artistry with the devotional cross form creates a profoundly beautiful and culturally rich piece that bridges two great traditions of ornamental craftsmanship. The three-dimensional floral motifs are rendered with the extraordinary attention to detail and vivid polychrome color characteristic of the finest Indian enamel work, where skilled artisans fill intricately carved metal surfaces with brilliantly colored enamel to achieve effects of remarkable painterly beauty. At 10.4 grams and 3 inches in length, this is a cross pendant of commanding presence and substantial craftsmanship that makes a bold devotional and artistic statement.
Chain Sold Separately.
