This beautifully detailed silver-plated crucifix pendant features a depiction of Jesus Christ on the cross, accented with black obsidian glass inlays for a deep, glossy finish. The flared arms end in ornate trefoil (three-leaf clover) motifs, symbolizing the Holy Trinity.
At the center sits a colorful enameled St. Benedict Medal, displaying the traditional protective cross with the initials C S P B (Crux Sancti Patris Benedicti – “The Cross of our Holy Father Benedict”), surrounded by V R S N S M V – S M Q L I V B (Vade Retro Satana… – “Begone Satan… Drink your own poison!”). The top of the cross bears the INRI inscription (Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum – “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews”).
The black obsidian glass adds mirror-like depth and is traditionally valued for its grounding properties, enhancing the medal’s spiritual protection against evil and temptation in Catholic tradition.
Designed with a unisex appeal, this pendant is perfect for everyday wear or as a meaningful gift for confirmations, baptisms, or anyone seeking safeguarding through faith.
