This beautiful Sterling Silver St. Brigid's Cross pendant, is inlaid with Connemara Marble. Connemara Marble is known as Ireland's gemstone, and comes in many different shades of green. The marble in this pendant is the same color as the rushes (reeds) I used to make St. Brigid's Crosses from, as a child in Ireland.
St. Brigid is the female Patron Saint of Ireland. I'm sure you have heard of St. Patrick, but maybe not of St. Brigid - "women never get enough credit". That is finally starting to change, and St. Brigid's Day has finally been made a bank holiday in Ireland!
St. Brigid's Day is celebrated on February 1st, and when I was growing up we always made St. Brigid's crosses on this day. They were made from rushes (reeds), and we hung them over the door to keep us safe from harm. I remember making them for the byre (cow shed) too!
