Catholic Jewelry

Cross, Crucifix, Rosaries were once a trademark of a real Catholic. For Catholic Religious Jewelry it is not only a style of adornment but also a way to convey their love and dedication to God. Since the early days, Catholics were very sentimental about their religious jewelry.

Recently wearing Catholic jewelry is moreover a cool trend to show off for the fashion fanatics on social media. Not only Catholics, but it is also widely used by the majority of people. Superstars like Madonna had flaunted her style with Catholic Religious Jewelry on the streets of Hollywood. Catholic Jewelry has always signified the glorious heritage of rich Catholic culture.

Earlier there were two synonymous Catholic Jewelry, i.e. the anchors and the Ichthys. Before Christianity became the dominant religion in Rome, the usage of the anchor was widely seen because it is a sign of positivity and gives a person hope during his/her tough times. The Ichthys described Jesus as “the fisher of men”. People strongly believed that this piece of jewelry acts as a mediator between God and mankind.

Now coming to crosses and crucifixes, according to some historian wearing a Crucifix was a wrong gesture in the 2nd century because it reminds people about that cruel moment of betrayal. But in the 3rd and 4th Century St. Clement of Alexandria and St. Paulinus of Nola described the crucifix/cross as the ultimate expression of faith, love, dedication, and protection. For the Catholic, this cross is a blessing in disguise from Jesus. This cross helps to heal you all the inner wounds and try restoring positivity inside your mind.

According to some Archaeologists, there were traces of wearing crosses in the 5th and 6th century also. Now there are almost 50 types of crosses used worldwide and amongst them, the Latin cross is quite popular amongst the Romans. The Greek cross, the Tau cross, the Saint Andrew cross are some other variations used in a wide manner.

Saint Medallions were not that much popular amongst the Catholics. The pagans used to wear this to worship deities of God. But after some time this jewelry was rejected and banned. Surprisingly recently the medallions are manufactured along with dozens of variations, styles, and designs.
