Potrzebujesz paska papieru (albo sznurka lub sznurówki), długopisu i linijki.
- Weź sznurek lub sznurówkę i zaznacz na nim długość, którą rozważasz, na przykład 50 cm.
- Złącz oba znaczniki z tyłu szyi, mając na sobie górę, którą zwykle nosisz.
- Spójrz w lustro: najniższy punkt sznurka to miejsce, w którym będzie leżał łańcuszek.
- Za wysoko lub za nisko? Spróbuj o 5 cm więcej lub mniej: to jeden rozmiar w górę lub w dół.
Masz już łańcuszek, który Ci się podoba? Połóż go płasko z zapiętym zapięciem i zmierz od końca do końca. Przy szerokiej szyi lub klatce piersiowej każda długość układa się nieco wyżej.
Nie masz linijki? Karta płatnicza ma 8,6 cm długości: policz, ile razy mieści się na pasku.

How to wear it
At 30 x 60 mm this is a bold cross, made to be seen. A large pendant like this balances well when it falls around the upper to middle chest, about 50 to 55 cm, where it shows over a plain T-shirt, a henley or an open shirt. It has the presence to be worn alone, without layering.
The polished stainless steel does not rust, so it can stay on in the shower, at the gym or on a job site. It is a strong gift for a son at his confirmation, a father on Father's Day, or a groom and his groomsmen.
Questions
Is the cross shaped like a sword?
Yes. Its long lower arm and strong lines recall a sword, with a small shield at the center.
Is a sword on a cross a violent symbol?
No. In the New Testament the sword stands for the word of God, which Saint Paul calls the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17). It speaks of spiritual courage, not of fighting.
Will the 60 mm Valiant Cross show under a fitted shirt?
Probably. At 30 x 60 mm it is made to be seen, over clothing; under a fitted shirt its outline will show.
What is the armor of God that The Valiant Cross refers to?
Saint Paul's image in Ephesians 6 of the Christian equipped for spiritual battle, with the shield of faith and the sword of the Spirit. The cross takes the shape of that sword, with a small shield at its center.
Will the polished Valiant Cross show scratches over time?
Some fine marks, as on any polished steel worn every day. It will not rust, and a wipe with the microfiber cloth after wearing keeps the shine.
Can it be a gift for groomsmen?
Yes. It is designed for men and suits weddings, birthdays and anniversaries, so several can be offered to a groom and his groomsmen.
Big cross necklace for men
If you want a cross that shows from across the room, you are probably done keeping it to yourself. Here are three large ones in stainless steel. The Valiant Cross, 30 x 60 mm, takes the shape of a sword with a shield at its center, Saint Paul's armor of God. The Reverent Heart Cross, 30 x 62 mm with the bail, is engraved with small hearts along its arms. The Floral Cross, 34 x 56 mm, flowers like the tree of life. More: Large Cross Necklaces.
Baptist mom here. My boy just graduated from Parris Island and he's headed wherever they send him. I want him to have the armor of God in some way he'd actually wear.
You raised him on those verses, and now you are watching him go somewhere you cannot follow. Paul wrote about armor from inside a Roman prison, chained to a soldier, so he knew what it looks like. The Valiant Cross, takes the shape of a sword with a small shield at its center, the shield of faith and the sword of the Spirit. It has no saints or medals, only the sign itself, and Ephesians 6:11: 'Put on the whole armour of God.' Tell him what it is before he asks. A Marine does not need it explained twice. Then go on doing what you have always done for him: pray by name.
The prayer
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:11, King James Version

Its meaning
The armor of God in Saint Paul
In his letter to the Ephesians, Saint Paul describes the Christian as a soldier dressed in the armor of God: truth as a belt, righteousness as a breastplate, the shield of faith, and the sword of the Spirit, which he names as the word of God. He wrote it as an image of spiritual courage, not of war. Some see in a strong, upright cross the same idea of standing firm. The lines of this pendant can be read as a sword with a small shield at its center. It measures 30 by 60 mm,...
Giving it as a gift
For a son at his confirmation, or a father on Father's Day, this cross makes its point without a word. It also suits a man entering a hard season who wants something solid to wear.
