Akoya Pearl Cross

This original handmade desgn cross was created using a 6.5 mm round Japanese Akoya pearl and is set in Argentium Sterling Silver.

The pearl was chosen as the center piece of this cross because it is considered the Queen of Gems and is the symbol of Purity and Modesty. Pearls were know to the Persioand seven centuries before Christ, and to the Egyptians as early as 3200 B.C. Pearls are mentioned in Chinese literature dating back to 2350 B.C.
