Sterling Silver Religious jewelry is an ORIGINAL design by James Avery of Kerrville, Texas. He has been making fine gold and silver jewelry since 1954 and specializes in religious pieces ~ items. I believe this particular ring is known as the "Crosslet".

Designer Signed jewelry MEASURES a Max. of ~ 3/8 Inches Wide (N-S) at the front; tapers ~ grows narrower around the back for comfort (down to 1/8 Inch). It presently MEASURES a Size 9 on my 'wand' and would be perfect for a teen or adult - male or female and could easily be re-sized by a silversmith.

Sterling Cross Ring is CLEARLY Marked "J A" with a candelabra in between the letters and "STER" on the inside. Vintage Silver Religious jewelry is in VERY GOOD CONDITION! ...NO DINGS, DENTS, BREAKS, REPAIRS or Excessive Wear - has not been cleaned ~ polished recently & does show light scratches from treasured use (photos greatly magnify them) that would virtually disappear after a professional buffing.
