Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Shamrock Cross carries its meaning in its terminals. Each of the four arms finishes in an open shamrock leaf, pierced through so that light passes behind it, and a small rosette marks the crossing. Down the shaft and out along the arms runs a band of close leaf ornament, cast crisply enough that the texture is legible at arm's length.
Irish devotion has used the shamrock for the Trinity since Patrick is said to have held one up to explain three in one, and setting it at the four ends of a cross joins that teaching to the Passion itself. Nothing else on the piece asks for attention: the leaves and the leafwork do all the work, and the piercing keeps a cross of this size from feeling heavy. At just under two inches it wears well on its own and finishes an Irish rosary with the same figure repeated at every point.
The shamrock cross was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
