INRI Skull Cross Pendant – 925 Silver

Clear the skull sockets and timber grooves gently

Remove the cross before impact activities or sleep. The projecting skull, rough arm ends and small plaque can contact surfaces or catch loose fabric.

Clean with mild soap and a soft brush around the teeth, sockets and grain lines, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use sharp tools in the dark recesses.

FTC guidance supports checking the listed metal, and CCI recommends limited abrasion and separate dry storage. Protect the front relief from harder jewelry.

A skull replaces the central figure below the INRI plaque

The skull projects forward with separated eye sockets, nose opening and teeth. Behind it, the cross arms use irregular ends and longitudinal grooves rather than smooth polished bars. A small INRI inscription sits above the head.

The inscription and cross belong to a religious visual tradition, while the skull adds a gothic mortality motif. The product record does not establish blessing, relic status, denomination, historical origin or one mandatory interpretation.

This compact skull-centered cross differs from rope-wrapped crucifixes, plain Latin crosses and skull plaques that do not use a cruciform structure.

Use the 40 x 27mm reference to judge a compact relief

• Material: 925 silver, as listed
• Listed size: 40 x 27 mm; axes are not defined
• Published weight: 18 g
• Center: raised skull with visible teeth
• Top detail: small INRI inscription plaque

Compare the hand-held image and listed rectangle with your preferred chest position. The raised skull adds thickness that is not represented by the two published dimensions.

Confirm that a chain end passes through the top attachment and can support 18 g. The gallery does not by itself guarantee chain inclusion.

Choose this design if the combination of cross, timber texture and skull suits your intended expression. Meaning should be considered personally and respectfully rather than treated as a promised effect.
