Religious Jewelry

Religious Jewelry

The single most popular type of sterling silver religious jewelry or just plain religious jewelry in America is cross necklaces and other types of cross jewelry. This post will focus on the mens side of crosses.

Crosses are a huge genre. In fact, the genre of crosses are bigger than religious jewelry. Because crosses are so huge that's all the more reason to restrict our comments on the mens side of crosses.



Christian cross necklaces for men have a lot are various sub categories of crosses and mens cross jewelry that to try to cover them all in one article would turn this post into a Sears catalog. Most crosses, especially mens crosses are also called necklace crosses because that's the way men wear their crosses, around their neck in the form of mens cross necklaces.



Necklaces crosses could be cross charms but for men they are generally cross pendants. Cross pendants tend to be thicker, larger and heavier which tend to appeal to most religious men.



There all types and categories of mens necklace crosses one worth touching on is Crusaders cross necklaces. The Crusaders cross necklaces tend to follow cross designs that are used in Heraldry today and on shields and weapons as designs and for Coats of Arms.



As was said earlier, there is a ton of material if one was inclined to cover all aspects of mens necklace crosses but since that's not really feasible let me just mention one other very popular and interesting category for mens cross jewelry...Celtic jewelry for men.



Celtic jewelry for men is a category of mens jewelry that specializes in Celtic jewelry for men. Under that category their are Celtic cross necklaces for men, Celtic cross pendants for men and even trinity knot necklaces that even though they are not cross necklaces their are many for men and the trinity knot necklace is a great Christian symbol.
