Okay Gals I need a Large 5-6 inches long Vintage Cross for a necklace a friend is making for me. I want it brassy or gold tone, I just want it to look old, it can of course be a reproduction. I would like it to be filigree or some sort of decoration not just a solid cross. Nor do I want Jesue on it as I have those, I want it more plan yet awesome!

Hippy/Bohemiam look like back in the olden days of knights, something like that. Does that make sense? It is really so hard to describe what I want. I am willing to pay for or barter if one of you have one, although I certainly can not pay a lot.

I am trying to find pictures of what I am looking for, when I find one I will post it.

Thank you.

Hugs,
Debbie

Debbie I may have the cross you need.

Please ignore the shoe in the picture. :D

Oh yes the cross is 51/2 inches long x 23/4 wide at the cross part.


It is not vintage but looks like it and it comes in a box brand new to me.
Would it work for you?

Debbie, these are the two crosses I have. I don't know if they are anything like what you have in mind. The one on the left I can't part with...it is vintage sterling from Peru my mama gave me :)
The one on the right I could, but it is only about 2-1/2" long. The one on the left is 3-1/2" long and it is REALLY big when I wear it, so I can't imagine wearing
one 4-5 inches! Anyway, if nothing else maybe the pics will show what you may or may not be looking for in a cross. Ackkkk sorry the photo is sideways....grrrrr.

Hugs,

Tammy

Thank you DArlene and Tammhy, not quite what I am looking. I want a lot larger and older looking.

Thanks Darlene, I want it to look old, bohemin/hippy style. I will find one, it may take awhile but that is the fun of looking for a treasure. I believe I can get one light enough too that it will not drag my neck down:-)
Hugs,
Debbie

Well the one I have definitely will drag your neck down, ha. I looked on line and all I could find were a lot like Tammy has, and they were expensive. Good luck on your search.

Yes, I have been on the internet too, Etsy, Ebay and elsewhere. I have found what I want in magazines, Where Women Create and a couple others.
Peggy, has a nice one as well that she got at JoAnn's a few years ago so I will look there as well.
I think I am wanting more Brassy than Silver as it will look older.
Thanks for all your ideas and help Gals, your the best.
Hugs,
Debbie

Good luck Debbie.

Brass will probably look more vintage than silver.

I can hardly wait till you get it made.
