Genesee Cross
This striking pendant merges two powerful traditions of early Christian symbolism. The Genesee Cross is a fusion design drawing from the 8th-century Canterbury cross—representing the insular style of Celtic Christian art—and the Jerusalem cross, a symbol of Christ's victory and redemption. The deep red garnet at the center serves as both a focal point and a symbol of faith, passion, and spiritual protection, enhancing the cross's contemplative power.
