    Description

    This Ethiopian blessing hand cross is modeled on the hand crosses that priests of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church carry to bless the faithful. Its head brings together four square arms around a central medallion with a small chased cross, a design inspired by Ethiopian and Eritrean heritage.

    It is made of gold-color metal with a bright finish. Each arm carries engraved rays and a small cross at its center; the handle, framed by two spheres, bears the word JERUSALEM engraved and ends in a diamond-shaped base decorated with the same rayed pattern.

    At 17.8cm long, it sits easily in the hand and fits a prayer corner, an icon table or a display shelf. Delivered in a blue box, it makes a thoughtful gift for a baptism, Timkat, Meskel or a name day.

    What is an Ethiopian blessing cross?

    In the Ethiopian Orthodox Church the priest carries a hand cross to bless the faithful, who kiss it in veneration. This model takes up that shape for the home or as a gift.

    Is this cross made of real gold?

    No. It is made of gold-color metal, not solid gold.

    How big is this cross?

    It is 17.8cm long (7in), a size that sits comfortably in the hand. It comes in a blue box.

    How is it different from our Slavic blessing cross?

    Our Slavic blessing cross has a crucifix and Church Slavonic inscriptions on trefoil arms. This one shows a geometric Ethiopian-style design, with square rayed arms and a diamond-shaped base.
