In 2 Minuten zu Hause messen
Sie brauchen einen Papierstreifen (oder eine Schnur bzw. einen Schnürsenkel), einen Stift und ein Lineal.
- Nehmen Sie eine Schnur oder einen Schnürsenkel und markieren Sie darauf die gewünschte Länge, zum Beispiel 50 cm.
- Halten Sie die beiden Markierungen im Nacken zusammen und tragen Sie dabei ein Oberteil, wie Sie es gewöhnlich tragen.
- Schauen Sie in den Spiegel: Am tiefsten Punkt der Schnur wird die Kette liegen.
- Zu hoch oder zu tief? Probieren Sie 5 cm mehr oder weniger: Das entspricht einer Größe größer oder kleiner.
Sie besitzen schon eine Kette, die Ihnen gefällt? Legen Sie sie mit geschlossenem Verschluss flach hin und messen Sie sie von Ende zu Ende. Bei breitem Hals oder breiter Brust sitzt jede Länge etwas höher.
Kein Lineal zur Hand? Eine Bankkarte ist 8,6 cm lang: Zählen Sie, wie oft sie auf Ihren Streifen passt.

So trägst du es
The pendant is 2.7 x 4.8 cm, weighs 10 g and hangs on a 50 cm (19.7 in) box chain. That length places it on the upper chest: it shows in the opening of a shirt with two buttons undone and sits centered over a T-shirt. It is light enough to forget during the day.
The stainless steel does not rust, so it can stay on in the shower and at the gym. Black is the quietest choice, silver the most classic, gold-tone the warmest. To layer it, add a 55 cm chain or longer. It suits Father's Day, a confirmation or daily wear.
Fragen
What is a devotion necklace?
A necklace worn every day as a personal sign of faith, usually a cross or a medal. This one is a cross made of two open outlines, one set inside the other.
Is it a double-barred cross like the Cross of Lorraine?
No. It has a single crossbar. The two crosses are nested, a smaller open cross inside a larger one.
How does the 4.8 cm Modern Devotion cross hang on its 50 cm box chain?
On the upper chest, where it shows in an open collar. That length suits a cross of 2.7 x 4.8 cm, which weighs 10 g with its chain.
Does the cross inside a cross of The Modern Devotion have its own meaning?
No, it is a design choice: two open outlines, one inside the other, give a graphic, modern look to the oldest Christian sign. The meaning stays that of the cross.
Which finish suits a man who never wears jewelry?
Black. It reads as a shape rather than as shine, so it looks natural even with workwear or a hoodie.
Can I wear it every day, even at the gym?
Yes. The pendant and the chain are stainless steel, which does not rust or turn your skin green.
Cross necklace for men, silver or black?
Silver-tone is classic and goes with any watch. Black is sober, almost monastic, and easy to overlook, which is exactly why some men prefer it. Neither is more faithful. The Modern Devotion comes in both, an open cross on a 50 cm box chain. So does the Sacred Ring Cross, a cross and ring engraved with Scripture, 60 or 70 cm. All stainless steel. Black pieces: Mens Black Cross Necklace.
Mens cross pendant that looks modern
You can hold an ancient faith and still want it to look like this century. The Modern Cross comes textured, inlaid with a small cross of stones, framed by a Greek key or crossed by a single wave, for a man who stands by what he believes even on the hardest days. It is sold as a pendant only. The Modern Devotion is an open, layered cross of clean lines on a 50 cm box chain. Both are stainless steel. More: Modern Men Silver Cross Pendant.
Men's cross chain gold for a teenager
A teenage boy will wear something if it looks like his and not like his grandfather's, and that is a real step: it means he is choosing. The Modern Devotion has strong, open lines, on a 50 cm box chain in gold-tone stainless steel. The Reverent Silhouette is a 25 mm medal with the name of Jesus above a figure with open arms, 45 cm with extender. Let him choose. On the card: Let no man despise thy youth (1 Timothy 4:12).

Seine Bedeutung
Two crosses, one inside the other
Saint Paul summed up his faith in a short phrase to the Colossians: Christ in you, the hope of glory.
This pendant gives that idea a clean, graphic form, with one open cross drawn inside another. Outlined crosses like this belong to modern design, but the sign itself is the oldest and most widely shared in Christianity. The open shapes keep it light despite its size of 2.7 by 4.8 cm, and the polished steel comes in silver, gold or black. It hangs on a 50 cm box chain, a length that sits on the...
Als Geschenk
For a father who likes a strong, simple design, or for a teenager at confirmation who wants a cross that looks current. In black it suits someone who rarely wears jewelry at all.
