# Renaissance Crucifix Cross Two-Sided Pendant Pewter Unisex Charm Necklace 2.75L

**Crucifixes** in this style first appeared in Italy during the **Renaissance**. They were **more refined and ornate** than medieval crosses and were intended to show, in the richness of their style, the **Lordly aspect of Christ's divinity**. This pendant has a wonderful size at 2.75 inches long. It has **details on the front and back sides** and has a **blue cabachon** below Christ's feet. If you collect crosses, this is a beautiful addition and **could hang as a focal point on a bead necklace or rosary**.

**Renaissance Crosses** were more realistic than medieval crosses. This gave them a greater power to invoke Jesus' suffering, and to remind those who wore them that it is their sins that were the reason why Jesus had to be crucified. The letters **INRI** mean: "Hail Jesus, King of Jews". These were Roman words. The Christians would say "Praise Jesus, King of Kings."
