This beautiful, St. Xenia Orthodox cross is fashioned from high-polished sterling silver and charcoal black enamel. A St. Andrew's cross adorns the center of this cross, and is flanked on each side with the Greek letters, "IC" and "XC", which stand for Jesus Christ. The silver dove at the top represents the Holy Spirit; the lovely vine design at the base of the cross is symbolic of the Cross as the Tree of Life, God's reconciliation and restoration of fallen mankind to Himself in Paradise. This sterling silver St. Xenia Orthodox Cross comes with an 18" silver chain, and is packaged in a lovely, blue velvet gift box.
