The Sacred Ring Cross

Is the ring on top of the cross or around it?

Around it. The ring is interlaced with the cross rather than hanging as a separate charm, and both pieces carry engraved Scripture.

What does a cross with a ring mean?

The cross stands for Christ and the ring for a promise that is kept, so together they are often worn to mark a vow: marriage, a confirmation or a commitment of faith.

Which chain length should I choose, 60 or 70 cm?

60 cm (about 24 in) falls on the lower chest and is the more visible choice. 70 cm (about 27.5 in) hangs lower and suits a broad build or wearing it under a shirt.

What is the difference between the silver and the black?

Only the finish. Both are polished stainless steel; silver is brighter and shows the engraved text more, black is more discreet.

Will the black Sacred Ring Cross lose its finish if I swim with it?

The stainless steel pendant and titanium steel chain will not rust. The black finish lasts longest away from pool chlorine and hard rubbing, so rinse it after the sea and wipe it dry.

Is it a good anniversary gift for my husband?

Yes. A ring around a cross is a natural way to recall wedding vows, and the black finish suits a man who wears little jewelry.

After 41 years of marriage my husband is gone. I still put out two coffee cups in the morning. I don't know who I am without him.

Forty-one years of mornings do not end because a death certificate says so, and the second cup is your love with nowhere to go yet. You do not need to put it away. You promised before God, and that promise was not foolish because it ended here. The Sacred Ring Cross, is a cross circled by a ring, both engraved with Scripture in small letters, a sign of a promise kept. Hold it while the coffee brews and tell the Lord about him. 'The Lord is close to the brokenhearted' (Psalm 34:18). The promise you made, you kept. And you are still God's own.
