Collection: Religious Necklaces

Religious necklaces carry Christian iconography as a hand-carved pendant — saints, archangels, the Virgin Mary and the cross. THESWAF makes 84 of them, cut in relief so the figures stay readable at pendant scale.

What's in this collection

Saint medals (24 designs — Saint Benedict, Saint Christopher, Saint Jude, Saint Francis), Jesus and the crucifix (21), crosses (12), Saint Michael (10), angels (6) and Virgin Mary (5).
