*****Where this High Cross is found in Scotland
This pendant is a replica of a high cross located the isle of Iona in Scotland (see photo of actual cross in listing). Maclean’s Cross – so named because it is thought to have been commissioned by a chieftain of that clan – dates from the 15th century, and it stands at the point where three ancient tracks meet.
Historic Scotland describes it as ‘ a wayside prayer-cross ’, and ‘ a fine example of the Iona school of stone-carving ’. Pilgrims filing up from the boats would have stopped at this cross to say a prayer on their way to Iona Abbey and St Columba’s. Shrine.
The disc-headed cross stands three metres high, and both sides display intricate carvings; on the west-facing side is the crucifixion.
It will delight lovers of all things Celtic, and the unique history of the Celts and their influence on our lives today.
Crafted entirely of 925 sterling silver, it comes with a Sterling Silver chain. It will make an ideal gift, and a lasting memento, for yourself or for someone you love.
Size (approx) - 1 10/16 inches by 1/4 inch
