It all began with a cross. Commemorate the beginning of a faith journey with the gift of a cross necklace from Borsheims.
Metal Cross Necklace
The choice of metal for a cross can hold profound significance in Christian traditions. Gold, for instance, symbolizes divinity, royalty and the eternal nature of God. Traditional yellow gold cross necklaces are classic and convey a sense of spiritual richness. The metal’s warm, natural hue works beautifully in both ornate and simple designs. White gold cross necklaces are a sleek and modern style that combine the luxury of gold with a cool tone. Rose gold, with its soft pink tint, has grown increasingly popular in recent years for its romantic and feminine charm. Silver cross necklaces, associated with purity, redemption and the price of salvation, are another meaningful choice. Sterling silver, the most commonly used form of silver in jewelry, is both durable and easy to maintain. Platinum cross necklaces stand out as a rare, high-end option, offering exceptional durability and a brilliant silvery finish. Its resistance to tarnishing makes it an ideal choice for a long-lasting, luxury cross necklace.
Beaded Cross Necklace
Beaded cross necklaces are a unique and expressive type of religious jewelry. They combine the iconic symbol of the Christian faith—the cross—with the artistic appeal of beadwork. The thoughtful design contributes a creative touch and modern feel to the necklace. With a variety of colors, patterns and materials, these necklaces can be customized to reflect the wearer’s personality while still keeping the central emblem of the cross. Whether adorned with vibrant or subdued hues, beaded cross necklaces beautifully unite individuality and faith, making them as personal as they are stylish.
Diamond Cross Necklace
As the eternal stone, diamonds captivate with their enduring brilliance and hardness. When set on a cross necklace, they bring refinement to the piece, transforming it from a spiritual token into a work of art. The delicate diamond accents on the cross necklace below make it a truly exquisite accessory.
Medallion Cross Necklace
A medallion cross necklace incorporates the Christian cross within a medallion, making the piece both a symbol of protection—the primary purpose of a medallion—and a reminder of faith. A popular variation of medallion cross necklaces features not only the cross but also an image of a saint. Saint medallions are often worn to demonstrate devotion to a specific saint, seek their intercession and honor their life and virtues.
Sideways Cross Necklace
The sideways cross necklace is a contemporary and stylish reinterpretation of the traditional Christian cross pendant. While the classic cross pendant is typically worn upright, the sideways cross is rotated 90 degrees, creating a fresh and fashionable take on a timeless symbol of faith. This design has become increasingly popular in recent years, appealing to those who want to express their religious beliefs in a more subtle, modern way.
Men’s Cross Necklace
Men’s cross necklaces are versatile pieces of jewelry and powerful symbols of faith, spirituality and identity. For Christian men, a cross necklace serves as a visible and constant reminder of their beliefs and their connection to Christ. It symbolizes their commitment to the faith and the values that come with it, such as love, humility and sacrifice. Refer to our men’s necklace length guide to determine the perfect fit for your cross necklace.
