Catholic or Orthodox cross - your choice?
Orthodoxy and Catholicism are the most ancient branches of Christianity. Both faiths have a huge number of followers not only in the world, but also within Ukraine itself. Both Orthodox and Catholics consider the pectoral cross to be one of their main shrines. It’s just that their amulets differ significantly from each other in form and set of religious symbols. Ukrainian jewelry houses do not consider it necessary to limit any of the faiths in their pursuit of faith. Therefore, in the online store umgold.ua, both Orthodox and Catholic crosses are presented in a wide variety of designs. In the catalog, everyone can inexpensively purchase a product for themselves that will become their true amulet against any misfortunes.
Learning to distinguish between Catholic and Orthodox crosses
The jewelry assortment of the online store includes exclusively high-quality crosses, for the manufacture of which the following were used:
- gold 585 and 750;
- white and blackened 925 sterling silver;
- silver with gilding.
The cross does not have to be gold or silver. The metal of the product does not at all determine the level of a person’s faith in God. It’s just that models made of precious metals will last for years, and the costs of purchasing them are completely justified. But many people hang wooden crosses on a chain or cord and do not experience any inconvenience. It all depends on the financial capabilities and preferences of each person.
As for the distinctive features of crosses of different faiths, there are not many of them. In accordance with Catholic traditions, neck amulets have a quadrangular shape and three nails on the figure of Jesus Christ. Orthodox crosses are distinguished by a more original, even sophisticated design:
- four, six or eight-pointed shape;
- figure of a crucifix with four nails;
- the inscription “Save and Preserve” on the reverse side.
One glance is enough to identify the Orthodox cross: on it the body of the Savior does not bear the mark of physical suffering, and his legs are closed. On Catholic products, the feet of Jesus Christ are placed one on top of the other. In the photo in the catalog this part is clearly visible, and therefore there should be no errors when ordering. If you have any doubts, you can always use the manager’s help via chat or phone. He will tell you how much the selected model costs and how to quickly place an order for it.
