Vintage Creed Sterling Head of Christ Pendant - 11 Grams

Like most Italian-American girls growing up in Brooklyn, a Christ head was THE gift to give a serious boyfriend... after you received an acceptable ankle bracelet, of course.

This classic rendering of the head of Christ is finely crafted by Creed and is similar to the one I gave Johnny Termite in 1968. It retains much of the original satin finish with patina just beginning to form in the crevices of the deep casting. The details are crisp and clear throughout, including the Creed hallmark and copyright on the verso. The luster cuts on the crown of thorns are a nice contrast to the satin finish.

While of these medals came with a continuous loop silver tone chain, this one has a similarly styled flat link chain (20 inches) that is marked "Sterling" on the clasp. I have not cleaned or polished this beauty and will leave it to the new owner.

Whether you're continuing the "tradition" and giving this handsome pendant to a special man in your life or buying it for yourself, this wonderful vintage devotional is a beautiful way to profess your faith. Comes boxed and ready for gift-giving.

Weight – 11 grams; 19 grams with chain // Dimensions – 5/8 x ¾ inches; 20 inch chain
