General Information:

  • Total Carat Weight: Approximately  4.31 ctw
  • Precious Metal Weight: Approximately 4.50 dwt
  • Precious Metal Material: Tests for 12-16k rose gold and 800 silver
  • Dimensions: 32.45 mm north to south (from bottom to top of affixed loop but not including bail) x 25.57 mm east to west x 5.20 mm deep at the tallest point (central diamond)l; ~12.05 mm bail height x ~3.95-4.00 mm inner bail opening (to configure chains that will safely fit); overall height from bottom of cross to very top of bail is 43.05 mm long x 25.57 mm wide
  • Weight: An impressive 6.97 grams
  • Markings: Unmarked; tested for 800 silver face and rose gold backing that tests between 12k to 16k gold purity.
  • Era: The pendant is estimated to date from between 1701-1806 (please see the written description for more details), with approximately six Table cut diamonds that are believed to date to 1500-1600. Because of their presence, this piece could, indeed, date to the late 1600s-mid 1700s, but is more likely a Georgian jewel. Without knowing an exact provenance, we cannot ascertain a more precise date range beyond what our years of collecting, dealing, learning and refining our expertise enables us to determine. Being that this date range is a professional estimate, you may find more information regarding the dating and pricing of pieces here.
  • Buyer Notes: This pendant is an extraordinarily rare and striking jewel with virtually no comparable pieces like it on the open market at the time of listing. Part of its unusualness comes from its form, which does not fit the historically standard shapes of most antique cross pendants that date to this period. Its shape, the diamond faceting matrix combinations, the dual materiality and the composition all lead us to believe that it is central to eastern European in origin. Some diamonds present could date as far back as the 1600s (17th century), while the pendant itself is believed to have been constructed during the 1700s (18th century), which tells us that those older diamonds may have been heirloom/family stones passed down from one generation to the next until they were formally set within the pendant as we see it today. The bail shows historic soldering (the silvery base metal material that seals the ends of the looped bail together), and is itself secure but this treatment means that it will no longer open. The top gold loop affixed to the top of the cross, into which the bail is girded, is worn down from friction with the bail over many hundreds of years of use. Also keep in mind that the foiling appears to shift in its coloration and intensity of color depending on the kind and directness of light; in bright sunlight, the stones’ foils may appear more colorful than in indoor, incandescent light. Likewise, this chameleon-chromatic effect may be attributed to the original colors of the foils, or may be a result of chemical reactions from exposure to water, age, time and any other environmental factors.
  • Prospective buyers, please be aware that the age, composition and materiality of this piece renders it much more fragile than a modern-made diamond pendant. As such, it should not get wet, and care and caution ought to be taken while being worn and enjoyed. It is a historic piece in the age of approximately 300 years, and should be preserved such, being that it is a one-off, completely singular and irreplaceable rarity. Market value of this pendant is VERY conservatively estimated to start at a base value of $5540. This pendant does NOT come with a chain necklace, and would have originally been worn on a long silver chain or a finely made velvet ribbon.

The Story:

An incredibly rare jewel, this cross pendant is of notable distinction for its singularity in size, carat weight and age. This pendant is professionally estimated to be just over 4.30 total carats of diamonds featuring antique rose cuts, antique modified rose cuts, and Dutch rose cuts. While the reverse of the cross is closed back rose gold, the face of the pendant is silver, boasting a natural oxidized patina that is an earned testament of time and so deeply beloved by collectors. The largest central diamond is set within a variant of cut-down collette, and all fifty other smaller diamonds are constituted by bead prongs throughout. These prongs are irregular, seemingly set where necessary and based on aesthetic symmetry.

Being that the piece is closed back, no light passes into and through the diamonds to refract light. Instead, these diamonds are all foiled on their reverse. Both the use of rose cuts and the employment of foiling were techniques designed specifically to catch the twinkle of candlelight, the foiling catching the light and reflecting within the stone.

Historically, jewelry smiths would slip thin sheets tinted or silvery copper "foil", sometimes vibrantly colored, between the gemstone back and its setting. This produced an interesting optical effect that caused gems (even rougher, darker or less skillfully cut stones) to utterly dazzle; the foil works to amp up the refractivity and bouncing of light, while adding light chromatic tonality. Although this foiling practice is an especially alluring attribute for collectors, foiled jewels are quite vulnerable to water damage if even slightly wet. Water causes foil to discolor and darken, to somewhat dissolve, and it can get trapped between the stone and the setting.

A note about foiled jewelry: One must keep in mind that the original owner for whom this cross was originally crafted did not occupy a lifestyle like we do today: she was not performing the same household tasks, taking part in the same social engagements and duties, pursuing the same athletic endeavors, adhering to the same hygienic practices, etc., that we do now. This being the case, this foiled diamond relic was simply never intended or designed to withstand today's living.

The cross’ shape is intriguing, as it is nearly equal-sided, denoting it as something between a Maltese cross and a Formée cross/Croix Pattée. Its form could be identified, therefore, as a derivative of Myrhorod/Cossack cross, which is known by its triangular shaped arms that do not quite flare at their ends to ‘fill’ out the square silhouette. Such shaped crosses are found in relation to countries in and around central to the westernmost portion of eastern Europe, specifically Germany, Sweden, Poland, Austria, Ukraine down to Montenegro and the Balkans, and more specifically Belgium and the Netherlands.

As such, our rough attribution of this cross is to this region, and confirming this regional attribution, the 800 silver face is a known historic preference of jewelers in Germany and Austria; specifically, we believe that this pendant may be a product of the Kingdom of Prussia, therefore dating to between 1701 (the kingdom’s beginning) and 1806 (the War of the Fourth Coalition under Napoléon Bonaparte).

The cross titles named here each have a multitude of meanings depending on the organization, culture, history and context that heralds these forms. Generally, each arm of the cross alludes to the virtues of wisdom, dignity, integrity and perseverance. The Formée cross/Croix Pattée can be traced back to the 1400s, and the Myrhorod/Cossack cross has roots in the 1500s, and both have widely been used in coats of arms to speak to loyalty, bravery and duty. Thus, the design has long been lent as a signifier of services such as military, emergency and hospital and even philanthropic clubs. Of course, the fundamental meaning of the cross is based in the sacrifice of Grace incarnate that built a bridge to the Perfector of faith and Healer of hearts.

Items do not come with physical documentation, appraisals, or certifications, unless explicitly stated in the item description and/or title. While jewelry is inspected upon procurement by the shop as well as prior to shipment, Revival Fine Jewelry cannot guarantee a warranty once items leave our inventory, given the delicate and individual nature of secondhand articles and the unaccountability of buyer handling post-purchase.

All orders ship with tracking, insurance and signature confirmation. Shipping options are presented at checkout. Per law and inegrity, international orders are always marked as commodity imports and customers are responsible for any and all customs expenses, VAT taxes and import fees, as well as any clearance costs legally dictated by their respective destination countries. These expenses are not calculated into the pricing structure, and returns based on import costs will not be permitted.

Returns: While Revival Fine Jewelry aims to provide a smooth experience from start to finish, customers are encouraged to reach out regarding any issue or dissatisfaction, so that we may work together toward a resolution. If a return is desired, the shop must be notified of an intention to return within 3 days of confirmed delivery, and item(s) must be shipped back to the shop within 7 days of confirmed delivery. All materials (gift box, inserts, cards) must be returned with the item(s). Returns declared after the 3 day window and/or postmarked after 7 days of receipt will neither be accepted nor refunded. Customers are responsible for generating an insured return shipping label (international customers included) and relaying the tracking information to Revival Fine Jewelry. Returns that do not include full insurance and/or tracking, and are damaged or lost in transit, will not be refunded. If a return is accepted, customers will be refunded less the original cost of shipping, handling and insurance, the expense of any damages incurred, and a 10% restocking fee (of the original purchase price). All sale items, items altered or resized by the buyer post-purchase, and all storage/ boxes are considered final sale and are ineligible for a return or refund.

Sale Terms: Sale prices are only valid within the prescribed sale window, unless otherwise stated by Revival Fine Jewelry or agreed upon between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer. To maintain business sustainability and general fairness, individual customers are not entitled to exclusive notification of, or owed access to, store sales antecedently. Orders processed prior to a promotion or sale, items placed on layaway prior to a sale, and payments paid through layaway prior to a sale will not be retroactively adjusted to reflect sale pricing or terms.

Specially Negotiated Deals: Items purchased at specially negotiated discounts, deals or prices through any platform between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer are considered final sale, including rates arranged and agreed upon via Facebook, Instagram, email or any other method. Closing deals at special rates reflects a desire by both parties to reach an expeditious and absolute sale. The intention of specially negotiated discounts, deals or sale prices through any platform between Revival Fine Jewelry and a designated customer, is to eliminate extra expenses and/or use of time and resources to formally list or re-list items per their specific and inherent value-determining qualities, as well as avoid unseen overhead business costs, stocking obligations, and all other disclosed or undisclosed monetary and nonmonetary expenditures.

Pricing: Revival Fine Jewelry reserves the right to decrease, increase, alter and modify inventory pricing to meet market rarity, demand or value; to offset platform, transaction or seller's fees; to adapt to economic inflation and fluctuation; and to defray specific business expenses. Pricing is the sole discretion of every small business.

Regarding Brooches & Pins: Often significantly and curiously undervalued jewelry items, brooches, pins and stick pins are treasured pieces of history in this shop. Accordingly, their pricing is calculated analogous to other fine jewelry, including their symbolic meaning, rarity and historical prestige. Such pieces are typically converted to other forms of jewelry, and are therefore becoming increasingly rare in their original states. Aside from being perfectly wearable as sophisticated lapel ornaments, brooches and pins of all kinds are prime candidates for many kinds of fine jewelry conversions, including rings, earrings, pendants, and charms, if so desired by the consumer post-purchase. Revival Fine Jewelry does not perform conversion projects for customers.

All layaway terms may be found here, and all shop policies may be found here.

Layaway is available for full priced, non-sale items priced $600.00 USD or greater, and items may not be combined to attain price-eligibility. Plans are offered as 3-month/90-day maximum terms.

In exchange for offering interest-free plans, customers agree to abide and uphold the following nonnegotiable terms and conditions:

  • A 30% deposit is due upfront to reserve the item for layaway and pull it from public sale on all of our shopping platforms. Shipping expenses are added to this first payment unless otherwise requested.
  • The remaining 70% balance is divided up into three subsequent monthly payments due on the same day of the following three months. If delinquent, a $20.00 USD late fee is added per day to an overdue payment until paid.
  • In the event that a layaway installment is left unpaid for seven (7) days and no communication is received from the designated customer, the layaway plan will be presumed abandoned. While the item will be returned to public sale, all payments made hitherto are still considered final.

Layaway items are promptly boxed and shipped to the designated customer once the final payment successfully processes. Taxes, import and other legal fees are not calculated into the payments, and are the sole responsibility of the customer, whether a domestic US or international buyer. Revival Fine Jewelry is not responsible for calculating, covering or adding such costs into purchase prices.

All layaway payments as well as all items purchased through layaway plans are considered final sale; neither payments nor items may be refunded, transferred, exchanged or returned. Revival Fine Jewelry does not issue store credit.

Revival Fine Jewelry reserves the right to cancel any layaway plan at any point for any reason if fraudulent activity is suspected. In this event, the designated customer will be notified prior to the intended cancellation of their plan.
