Fabulous aluminum cross No. 1, metallic copper paint, 6.5 x 10.5 cm. Kaslin casting | Size: 4 inches

It is very practical to use, requiring no polishing like silver plate pieces. Russian siluminum cross (a heavy cast non-toxic aluminum alloy metal) will never tarnish like silver. The manufacturing process includes a final stage of polishing which gives it a lovely sheen. Small ring on the top for easy hanging.

The three-bar cross "existed very early in Byzantium, but was adopted by the Russian Orthodox Church and especially popularized in Slavic countries."
