"Our guardian angels are always with us and they often use someone's lips to tell us about something important."
Paulo Coelho, Brazilian writer
Cross Pendant "Five Angels" is a divine stairway, on which people ascend to heaven. Angels, gathered by the fire of faith, keep the heavens. And it is them to keep the key from the gates to the Kingdom of Heaven.
The cross is made in the technique of cloisonné enamel. This is a complex and elite jewellery art, in which it depends so much on the skill of the author, on his ability to feel color and fire. Colors of such pieces will remain bright for ages, because they are not afraid of neither light nor influence of the destructive power of time.
Neck cross is a sacred and deeply symbolic thing. Five angels, five terrible warriors, five defenders look from heaven, ready at every moment to start an invisible battle for the salvation of the soul. Skies are clear, blue (the colour of garments of the Blessed Virgin Mary), strewn with stars and diamonds. The cross "Five Angels" itself is golden. Saint Nikolai Velimirovich of Ohrid and Žiča wrote, “Gold remains unchanged and does not cheat. It is the same in imperial crown, in the land, in the water, in flames. It is equal everywhere."
And human messenger is equal everywhere, the guardian angel. He cries when a person sins, and rejoices when he repents.
Cross pendant "Five Angels" is the rime on a window on Christmas night and the angels that stare right into your window.
