Questions about Polished Finish Cross
Does a polished cross scratch easily?
A high polish shows fine scratches more readily than a satin or textured finish, simply because there is nothing to disguise them. On gold and silver those marks accumulate into a soft patina rather than damage, and a jeweler can re-polish a piece back to new.
What size cross should I buy?
Judge it against the wearer rather than in millimeters. Every product page lists the height and width, and comparing those to a familiar coin is the quickest way to picture it. For a child, smaller and lighter is usually the right call; for an adult, the limit is what sits comfortably under a collar.
Can a cross be engraved?
Some can. Where a piece has a flat enough back to take lettering, the product page says so â look for Engravable in the specifications. Pierced and openwork designs generally cannot be engraved, because there is no solid face to cut into.
What does hollow or solid mean in the specifications?
It describes construction rather than quality. A solid piece is metal all the way through. A hollow or semi-solid piece is formed with a cavity, which lets a large cross stay light and affordable in precious metal. Both are the stated metal throughout â the specifications on each product page say which it is.
Is this a good gift, and for what occasion?
These are given most often for a baptism, a confirmation, a classic first cross. A cross is one of the few gifts that is kept and worn for decades rather than used and replaced, which is why it suits a milestone.
