A large man at 7.5 feet tall, he worked helping travelers cross a raging river safely. One day a small child asked for his service. Perched on Christopher’s shoulders, the child grew heavier and heavier as they crossed the stream. Reaching the other shore, Christopher asked him, ‘Who are you, that you placed me in such peril? It seems I was carrying the whole world on my shoulders.’ The child replied, ‘You not only carried the world, but him who made it. I am Jesus Christ, the King.’ St. Christopher's name means ‘Christ-bearer.’ He was believed to have lived in the third century during the reign of Decius.
Gold-plated jewelry has been around for over one-hundred years; today modern yellow gold-plated sterling silver jewelry is created with such advanced techniques that many pieces have quality standards similar to solid gold jewelry. The best gold-plated jewelry is gold-over-silver jewelry as silver is a fantastic base metal for gold-plating. The two metal fusions create a wonderful ambiance; gold adds richness and warmth to everything, it illuminates and enhances. Gold represents perfection in all things.
It’s fitting this is finely crafted in silver, the spiritual meaning of silver symbolizes strength, spirit, grace, divinity, wisdom and purity. Sterling silver is known as the metal of emotions, love and healing. This is earth friendly as it is made with the Refined Karats system certified by Scientific Certification Systems’ (SCS) strict requirements. This is proudly made in America with a green process of ethically, environmentally and socially responsible production processes; the silver is 100 percent recycled.
The rising price of silver makes this a great investment.
