Arrived earlier than promised. It was exactly as described and so beautiful. I was afraid it would be too small or too light weight— but it is not. It's perfect.

Our New Beautiful St Brigid's Cross is made of 316 L Stainless Steel and full of impeccable detail. This striking symbol from Ireland of woven rushes is truly lovely. Black antiquing helps to accent the details.
You are buying JUST the pendant- A chain option is available.
Details include:

Cross is 1 1/4" tall without the bail
Cross is 1 1/4" wide
The piece is 1 9/16" overall
Optional Stainless Steel Chain is adjustable from 16" - 20" in length

There was an old pagan Chieftain who lay delirious on his deathbed in Kildare (some believe this was her father) and his servants summoned Brigid to his bedside in the hope that the saintly woman may calm his restless spirit. Brigid is said to have sat by his bed, consoling and calming him and it is here that she picked up the rushes from the floor and began weaving them into the distinctive cross pattern. Whilst she weaved, she explained the meaning of the cross to the sick Chieftain and it is thought her calming words brought peace to his soul. He was so enamored by her words that the old Chieftain requested he is baptized as a Christian just before his passing.

Since that day, and for the centuries that followed, it has been customary on the eve of her Feast Day (1st February) for the Irish people to fashion a St. Brigid's Cross of straw or rushes and places it inside the house over the door.
