Questions about Yellow Gold Crosses â Fleur de Lis & Laser
What does the fleur de lis on a cross symbolize?
The fleur de lis is a stylized lily, long associated with the Virgin Mary, and its three petals are commonly read as the Trinity. On a cross the two meanings sit together. The form is particularly associated with French and Louisiana Catholic tradition.
Is 14K yellow gold real gold?
Yes. 14K is 58.3% pure gold, alloyed with copper and silver for strength, and every piece is stamped 14K. Pure 24K gold is too soft to hold a cross arm or a bail, which is why fine jewelry is alloyed.
Will this hang on a chain I already own?
Bail sizes across this range fit standard chains, so a piece here will generally hang on a chain you already have. Each product page lists the bail measurement where the supplier provides it. A heavier cross is steadier on a slightly thicker chain, simply because a fine chain shows the weight.
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.
Is this a good gift, and for what occasion?
These are given most often for confirmation, a Marian devotion, a Louisiana or French family tradition. 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.
