The carved stone appears to show a cross motif, making the piece doubly symbolic. The back has a hammered cast texture and a maker's stamp in a rectangular cartouche.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo chain is included. The bail is integrated into the left arm of the cross, so the pendant hangs at a slight diagonal — a detail of the design rather than a flaw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLayers well on a fine silver or oxidised chain, or can be worn alone on a cord. The scale sits well at the collarbone and works for day wear as easily as for occasions where a religious motif is intentional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Pendant (cross)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: 1970s–1980s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Silver-tone metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: Dark green carved intaglio cabochon (cross motif)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: To be confirmed — please see batch questions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 24 g (item only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarked: Yes — maker's stamp Lisa Paris in rectangular cartouche on reverse (characters partially legible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Bail on left arm — pendant only, no chain included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent · No chips or damage to stone, all metal surfaces intact, stamped mark clear on reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Rare Room","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54070023586129,"sku":"RR-0384","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/6667\/9633\/files\/2026-06-05_19.23.41.jpg?v=1781525828","url":"https:\/\/therareroom.co.uk\/products\/vintage-1970s-silver-tone-byzantine-cross-pendant-green-intaglio-stone-religious","provider":"The Rare Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
