Ornate Spanish Cross
Solid sterling silver
Cast in NM, USA, from a late 18th century Spanish original 1 5/8 x 1 1/8 x 1/16 inch; 4.1 x 2.8 x .2 cm Note: this cross includes a silver ring (not shown) so as to be worn
The sophisticated design and imaginative openwork of this cross is the work of a master. Note how the silversmith has created three crosses in one by playing with negative space that also produces a central quartet of hearts. Silverwork of this age and quality was reserved for the noble and merchant classes.
