Silver Crucifix

A silver crucifix has the unique double meaning of both the symbol itself and the silver color. Silver is likened to white, meaning purity.

Because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, Catholic Christians believe that their own souls are washed clean and returned to purity when they confess their sins and ask for forgiveness. It was for this purpose that Jesus was hung on a cross and died.

A crucifix is a cross with an image or representation of Jesus still hanging. Other Christian crosses are void of the hanging Jesus, but Catholics want to remember a more vivid image of the sacrifice, therefore, a crucifix includes both the cross and Jesus still on it. A silver crucifix is a powerful symbol because it represents both the sacrifice and the reward we can receive as a result of that sacrifice.

The Holy Secret Jewelry company has handcrafted a beautiful silver crucifix made of sterling silver and hung on a sterling silver chain. It is most unique however, because the silver crucifix is placed on a hand-blown glass bottle that can be filled with holy water from the Jordan River where Jesus was baptized. Therefore, the silver crucifix from Holy Secret Jewelry has even more meaning than any other silver crucifix because of the added element of the holy water.

If you are looking to purchase a silver crucifix that is most unusual to represent your own unique relationship with the risen Christ, you should browse the Holy Secret Jewelry gallery.
