"Beautiful"
This is the perfect size for me. I dont particularly care for dainty jewelry. The pendant is a little larger than a quarter, and it is beautiful.

"Cross of Light"
Fabiana: When searching for the perfect Christmas gifts, I came across your collection. I am partial to a figaro chain and lobster claw clasp and ordered three cross necklaces. The Cross of Light arrived today. I am so pleased. The chain is delicately fashioned, and the pendant is beautiful. The gift box was very special. too. I look forward to the arrival of the next two necklaces, and your future offerings. Virginia, NJ, USA
