Superb pendant by Arthus Bertrand, representing a stylized Celtic cross in gilded bronze. This antique jewel embodies both the power of the symbol and the elegance of French craftsmanship. The cross is finely chiseled with marked reliefs around the edge of the circle. It hangs from a black braided cord finished with a golden spring clasp. On the back, the jewel is signed with the inscription "ARTHUS BERTRAND - PARIS".
