This cross is so pretty. It is a perfect size to make it very delicate looking. I collect crosses and this was a wonderful addition to my ever growing display.

I was well pleased with the timely processing and delivery of the order. The Cross was a gift for a friend and I have not seen it. She said it was beautiful and it was appreciated.

This cross is just lovely. Its painted flowers are very delicate and under a shiny glass-like finish that is easy to clean and looks great. A great accent piece.

A little dismayed with the item. The cross is so light, it even feels cheap. I expected much more when I ordered this. When it is hung on the wall, it does look nice, however, don't display it where it will be closely looked at.
