Monastic Carved Wooden Cross Necklace

The monastic cross necklace is carved in wood with the craftsmanship and devotion of the monks of Mount Athos, who accompany their work with much prayer, which is why their handiwork carries their blessings to those who use them.

It features a relief image of the Crucified Christ and is decorated with monastic motifs. The wooden cross necklace is light and discreet, making it suitable for both children and adults to wear continuously. It comes with a black leather cord for durability in constant use and a practical clasp.

Necklace Cross: Why We Wear It

The cross dominates the entire life of Christians, the entire life of our Church, as an instrument of sacrifice, salvation, joy, sanctification, and grace.

The Cross of the Lord is a symbol and testimony of faith for Orthodox Christians. On it, Jesus redeemed humanity’s salvation with His boundless love.
At the mere sight of the cross, the devil trembles, and his temptations cannot touch Christians.

For this reason, Christians wear a cross around their neck as a testimony of Orthodox faith, as a symbol of Jesus’ sacrifice, and as protection.
