Antique 1930s Mother of Pearl and Silver Cross, with Christ Crucified and Hollow Out Finishes, Religious Object. Religious cross pendant, crafted from carved mother-of-pearl and topped with openwork silver pieces. The silver Christ figure stands out in the center, with great expressiveness and detail. These types of pieces were very popular in the first half of the 20th century, especially between 1930 and 1940, and were often used as a symbol of faith and spiritual protection. The combination of mother-of-pearl, symbol of purity and light, with silver, metal associated with clarity and moon, makes this cross a deeply symbolic piece. The openwork, neo-Gothic-style finishes give it an ornamental richness reminiscent of traditional liturgical jewelry. This piece is ideal for both sacred art collectors and those looking for a vintage accessory with spiritual and aesthetic significance. It can be used as a pendant or as part of a reliquary.

Church canons, rules, norms and measures are peculiar models and principles of Christian teaching, which have their own characteristics in the Christian faith. Traditions and traditions that are observed in this art in the field of visual expression. It was the Byzantine Empire that imposed the icon-painting art, created its basic rules, and determined its tendencies. By spreading Orthodoxy and imposing its culture among the surrounding peoples, she passed on her icon-painting traditions. Bulgarian, Serbian, Russian, Romanian iconography are strongly influenced by Byzantium, which does not prevent them from having their own characteristics. The revival brings renewal, the new style is close to the folk traditions, without contradicting the canons of the genre. At the end of the 19th century, a new artistic worldview was established… Byzantine art was rediscovered. Skillful and hard-working hands from morning to night forged, drew and shaped exquisite silver jewelry, amulets and more. Diversity marking human development. Art schools appeared, with master goldsmiths, painters, engravers, carvers, who left a mark of higher creativity on the products. The new masters well understood their task, to follow the original guidelines created by their predecessors. Pay attention to the photos. There is a small difference between the two halves in the production of mother-of-pearl. One is more masterfully made… With more detailed and clear contours of the image.
