Vintage 14K Yellow Gold Textured Fleuree Cross Pendant

This is a small religious pendant in the form of a Bottony or Fleuree cross, characterized by the three rounded lobes at the end of each arm representing the Trinity. The item appears to be made of yellow gold, featuring a distinct linear brushed or bark-like texture across the front surface to diffuse light. A clear hallmark is visible on the horizontal cross-member, stamped '14KT' followed by a maker's mark that appears to be 'G' or a stylized 'L'. This indicates a gold purity of 58.3%. The construction is solid with crisp edges on the trilobe terminals. In terms of condition, there is a visible reddish-brown patina or oxidation in the recessed areas, which may suggest the presence of copper in the alloy or accumulated organic surface residue. Small abrasions and minor wear consistent with mid-20th-century vintage use are present. The finish is consistent with jewelry styles from the 1960s to 1980s, showcasing a blend of traditional religious iconography with mid-century modern textural elements.
