14k Yellow Gold Antique Cross Pendant. Apostles of Prayer

For sale is an antique 14k yellow gold cross pendant. This lovely antique pendant is fully reversible, with beautiful repousse on both sides. The four arms of the cross have exquisite Art Deco styling on both sides. Each arm has intricate scrollwork and Bali beads in raised gold. On one side the center of the cross has a circle with the face of Jesus in raised gold.

On the other side the center of the cross has the letters "IHS" and the worlds "Apostleship of Prayer." IHS are the first three letters of the name Jesus in Greek. In Latin, IHS came to stand for Jesus, Savior of Humankind (Iesus, Hominum Salvator). The Apostleship of Prayer, founded in France in 1844, focused on a spirituality that shows followers how to offer every moment of their entire day in the service of the Lord.

The pendant has an attached jump ring bail to accommodate your chain. This is a rare and beautiful cross pendant. It can be worn alone or layered with other religious medal pendants. 

The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)
