 1830 Pardon Cross
Deanne Mckeown-Sedona, AZ
Sterling silver 1 1/4”x 7/8”
Italy
A great holiday gift idea from Isadora. This cross is an indulgence an approved pardon of the living, and souls in Purgatory. In this instance, the Virgin Mary is invoked to pray for the sinner. The word indulgence originally meant kindness or favor. In this instance an indulgence is given to remit the temporal punishment of a sin that has been forgiven. This cross comes with a historical information card. A collection of crosses created by Byron and Deanne McKeown, created from their historical research on crosses and rosaries worldwide. Cast in sterling silver, gold, vermeil, semi-precious and precious stones, these designs are exclusive to the McKeown Galleries.
