It recalls Christ's death on Calvary and his resurrection, the heart of what Christians believe. Since the early centuries believers have traced it on themselves in prayer, and wearing a small cross is a quiet way of saying the same thing without words. Worn low, close to the heart, it can be touched in a moment of prayer during the day. This fine Y-shaped chain in gold-tone alloy holds one round bezel-set crystal at the center and a small polished cross at the end of the drop, on a 45 cm chain with a 5 cm extender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA cross to touch when you need a moment of prayer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou like to pray in small moments, in line at the store or before a meeting.

At 50 cm, with the extender, it shows well over a fine knit or a plain dress. It is fine enough to layer: add a shorter 40 cm chain above it, keeping at least 5 cm between them. The piece is gold-tone alloy with a crystal, so put it on after perfume and lotion, and take it off before a shower or a swim. It suits a confirmation, Mother's Day or Christmas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe prayer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe adore Thee, O Christ, and we bless Thee, because by Thy holy cross Thou hast redeemed the world.

The cross hangs below it, so it sits lower than the 45 or 50 cm chain length alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs The Lariat Cross made of gold or alloy?\u003c\/strong\u003e Alloy, with a gold-tone finish.
