This 1960′s vintage cross was handmade by an artisan jeweler. It is unsigned but the talent is shown in the workmanship.

14k gold with 4 prong set Russian Charoites with inclusions that give a tiger’s eye effect. The lowest stone on the cross has deep striation. It is not a crack and does not go all the way through but it is pictured from prong #1 to prong #2. This means that if you take it to a jeweler to polish on a machine they must handle it with care. No rough stuff with this piece(as with most jewelry with stones)

It weights 8.3 dwt It measures 2 1/8 in. by 1 3/4in or 5.39cm by 4.44cm.
