Many designers think of gold and silver when designing cross pendants, but a visit to any jewelry wholesaler should give designers a wealth of other ideas. Cross-shaped pendant beads are available in everything from Venetian glass to gemstones. Many of these pendant-sized stones are hand carved and predrilled for stringing. Others come with a pin embedded in the stone itself, along with a bail. Most crosses come with silver or gold findings for additional sparkle, but simple and elegant gemstone cross pendants make a statement all their own, and really don't need "bling," they carry their own message without it.
