14k Gold Greek Cross Charm/Pendant

This item is a small 14k gold Greek cross pendant or charm, exhibiting a classic cross form where all four arms are of equal length. The overall dimensions are approximately 1.75 cm in width by 2.25 cm in length, including the bale. The material is specified as 14k gold, which is consistent with the rich yellow metallic luster visible in the image. The cross features a textured, possibly filigree or granulated surface on its arms and central boss, giving it a decorative and ornate appearance. Each arm of the cross, as well as the center, has a raised, perhaps bezel-set, element with a granular or stippled texture within, suggesting a classic or historical design influence, possibly Byzantine or early Christian art. The four points of the cross also feature a similar raised, possibly bead-like, decoration. The craftsmanship appears to be detailed, with a focus on surface embellishment. There is a small jump ring or bail at the top arm for suspension on a chain or bracelet. Visible condition issues include some general surface wear and a slight accumulation of dirt or patina in the recessed areas, which is typical for an item of this age and material. No specific maker's marks or signatures are discernable from the provided image. The style suggests it could be from the mid-20th century or earlier, referencing traditional religious jewelry designs. Its small size and lightweight appearance suggest it was likely intended as a personal devotional item or a symbolic accessory.
