This mid-century pendant necklace features an 18 karat yellow gold Maltese cross measuring 1.25 inches in both length and width. The design contrasts a textured gold center against a polished gold border, creating depth within the cross structure. The pendant hangs from a matching gold chain that complements the mid-century styling. This piece reflects the design characteristics popular during the mid-century period, when bold geometric shapes and contrasting finishes were frequently used in jewelry.
