It’s there, in the heart of the emerald isle, where artisans crafted tales into tangible treasures. And within the hallowed halls of Victorian craftsmanship lies a relic of timeless elegance – behold, the Victorian 15 karat gold Celtic Cross.

What truly sets this cross apart are the intricate engravings adorning its golden surface. Classical Celtic motifs dance across its expanse, weaving tales of warriors, mystics, and ancient rites. Each line tells a story, each curve whispers a myth. The cross measures 73.3 mm north to south and 35.8 mm across, it was crafted with meticulous care and attention to detail, it’s hollow, but its 3.2 mm thickness lends an air of durability and resilience, and it’s 10.3 gram weight gives it a luxuriously weighty feel.

Though unmarked, this cross bears the unmistakable stamp of quality, carefully acid tested to reveal its true nature as 15 karat gold. A testament to the skill of its makers, it hails from the British Isles, a product of the rich tapestry of Victorian craftsmanship, circa 1870. less
