It hangs from a wide bail on a fine oval-link chain of 18 in (46 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIs a small crucifix necklace detailed enough to show the figure?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the figure stays readable because its texture contrasts with the polished cross around it.

Picture yourself traveling and stepping into an old cathedral to light a votive candle.

The bail is broad compared with the cross, which frames the top of the pendant and gives the small crucifix a defined upper edge on the chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs this crucifix a fitting baptism gift for a goddaughter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, a crucifix under an inch tall suits a baptism gift because it can be kept now and worn later. The figure of Christ makes the meaning of the day clear, and the gold-tone or silver-tone choice lets you match the jewelry she may wear as she grows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs a crucifix with the figure suited to every Christian tradition?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003eA crucifix showing the figure of Christ is most closely tied to Catholic and Orthodox devotion. Many Protestant traditions use an empty cross instead, focusing on the resurrection. If the wearer belongs to one of those churches, a plain cross may feel closer to her practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Nahyana","offers":[{"title":"Silver-Tone","offer_id":46517531607084,"sku":"1005006347237471-APN39-P","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold-Tone","offer_id":46517531574316,"sku":"1005006347237471-APN39-14K","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/1202\/4620\/files\/silver-crucifix-necklace-white-background-3388-19.webp?v=1793156938","url":"https:\/\/nahyana.com\/products\/small-crucifix-necklace-in-925-sterling-silver","provider":"Nahyana","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
