The cross on the body has always been a shrine for a Russian person. To lose it was considered a bad omen, and to sell it was the greatest blasphemy. It was the most significant element for connecting with God. No matter what the product was: gold, silver, or wooden. It helped to get rid of dark temptations and survive adversity.
The Story of the Crucifixion
The cross is a symbol of the redemption of the sins of humanity before our Lord Jesus Christ. After all, he sacrificed himself for the sake of people. Therefore, they often depict a crucified person on crosses. After the great sacrament of Baptism, the attribute gave immediately to a Christian.
Crosses have great power. True believers can heal the sick and cast out demons, resist darkness and fornication with their help.
In Ancient Russia, crosses were over clothes. Later only church servants had this right. So it remains to this day.
In ancient times, people swore friendship and loyalty on the cross. The symbol of the cross was also associated with construction. It was lying during the construction of buildings, bridges, and cathedrals.
Many beautiful rituals were associated with crosses. For example, if a church bell was fractured, it was melted down into a hundred crosses for parishioners. If a person refused to wear a cross, there is the belief that he had betrayed God. And it does not matter whether he did it out of his conviction or under the compulsion of Gentiles, pagans, or ardent atheists. The cross accompanied a person everywhere and always: on weekdays and holidays, in joy and misfortune.

- durability;
- no rust even after many years of use;

People may present crosses even to babies for Christening. The products will not only not harm the delicate children’s skin, but on the contrary, will improve its condition. The cross will protect schoolchildren from infectious diseases. In the twenty-first century, all sorts of viruses are hovering everywhere: at school, in transport, in supermarkets, on playgrounds, and sports grounds.
