A compact flared-arm Orthodox cross pendant, measuring 11.00 mm in height, presents a detailed depiction of the Crucifixion. The central high-relief figure of Christ is set against a stippled background, creating a distinct visual contrast. Flanking the corpus are the traditional Cyrillic inscriptions "ІС" (Jesus) and "ХС" (Christ), with "ІНЦІ" (INRI) positioned above the head. The body of the cross itself features inwardly curved edges that flare out at the terminals, a design that balances classical form with a robust, modern profile. With a substantial thickness of 2.7 mm, the piece has a tangible, durable presence.
The reverse side of the pendant is equally ornate, featuring intricate, stylized scrollwork that flows across the arms of the cross. A simple, smaller cross is carved at the very center, serving as a focal point for the swirling patterns. This double-sided design ensures the pendant is visually engaging from all angles. Provided as a high-resolution 3D model, the file is optimized for production, with clean surfaces and deep relief that will translate well in lost-wax casting or direct resin printing. The design's clarity makes it an excellent candidate for various finishing techniques, from a high polish to an antiqued look that highlights the textured recesses. The model imports cleanly into standard jewelry CAD software like Rhino or Matrix for any necessary adjustments.

Production & Compatibility This model is well-suited for high-resolution 3D printing on SLA, DLP, or MSLA platforms using castable resins. The deep relief of the crucifix and the reverse-side scrollwork are designed to reproduce crisply during the lost-wax casting process. Its 2.7 mm thickness provides structural integrity, minimizing the risk of warping or breakage during casting and finishing. The separate jump ring offers flexibility in assembly and allows for use with various chain thicknesses.
Q: What do the letters on the front of the cross mean? A: The front features traditional Cyrillic inscriptions for an Orthodox crucifix: "ІНЦІ" is the equivalent of INRI, while "ІС" and "ХС" are abbreviations for Jesus Christ.
Q: Is the 11.00 mm measurement the total height? A: No, the 11.00 mm dimension refers specifically to the height of the cross body itself. The bail and jump ring will add to the overall hanging length of the finished pendant.
Q: Is the design on the back engraved or raised? A: The scrollwork and central cross on the back are rendered in raised relief, standing out from the stippled background texture, just like the crucifix on the front.
