Budded Cross in Open-Work Sterling Silver #5288--DISCONTINUED--NO LONGER AVAILABLE

This beautiful, open-work, budded cross is made of sterling silver.

Budded crosses can be fashioned with anywhere from a single to five buds per cross end, each arrangement having its own symbolism.  The most common is three, which represents the Trinity: God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  Four buds usually symbolize the four evangelists: St. Matthew, St. Mark, St. Luke and St. John.

The three-budded cross is also sometimes called the Apostles Cross, with each bud representing one of the twelve Apostles.  When designed with gemstones for each bud and a single gemstone in the center, the central stone symbolizes Chrst.
