“THE MALTESE CROSS with COMPANION BEAD NECKLACE”

………………………The MALTESE CROSS & COMPANION BEAD NECKLACE SET, J357132, were made for each other! These two pieces are also from my Anne Klein Couture archives. I have always loved Maltese crosses, and they have shown up on most designer collections for decades. It was a favorite of Chanel, and can often be seen on the runways of Dolce & Gabanna, Gucci, Valentino, Gianfranco Ferre…..and many more……..,.This Maltese Cross has the look of the ages…..a piece that may have been worn by a woman at a royal court…….The metal work is very detailed with a fine rope outlining the entire cross. Within the cross is a large round deep Carnelian stone surrounding by twelve seed pearls, and four onyx square stone all faux. The keeper at the top of the cross is a beautiful piece in itself. It is attached to the cross with a beautiful hinge, and within another smaller faux carnelian stone…..The cross is approx. 2 1/2 inches long  not including the keeper, and 2 1/8th inches wide…..The DOUBLE RING CHAIN sets off the piece to perfection……The COMPANION NECKLACE works perfectly with the Maltese cross and will be great with so many more pieces you already own. It is SUPER LIGHT IN WEIGHT! It is made in RESIN beads, not glass, which keeps the weight and price where we needed it to be to keep the price for two pieces reasonable. Some may think of the piece as a religious symbol, but for many it is more decorative than religious. Anne Klein used to wear Maltese crosses herself………………..This is another very unique piece with detailing you rarely see in Fashion jewelry today, unless it’s hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars……………………………….

enjoy………much Love…………..Louis

    Louis, I just love this set! I am a big fan of Maltese Crosses and will be thrilled to add this to my collection. I already have 5 of your crosses and wear them all the time!

    I have been waiting for this piece. I have nothing like it. Secondly I bought several teal and merlot/wine pieces and cannot wait to wear them together. My husband often says how nice I look when wearing Linea. Your styles and designs just suit me, my personality, and lifestyle. Then he adds, “it’s Louis right?”. I just smile.

      Dear Jackie….that’s a huge compliment to both of us! He’s a good man.

    Stunning and so sophisticated.

    No matter how many great Linea jewelry pieces I already own, I cannot resist when a true, new marvel appears on the scene.

    Can’t wait!! Like so many pieces of your clothing, pieces of your beautiful jewelry combine so well with other pieces that we have from your collection. Makes them investment pieces. As I have mentioned before, I have a good number of pieces from your Anne Klein couture/Anne Klein II lines that I have never given up. Thank you!

    Hi Louis any hints as to when the set of hoops will debute? Thanks in advance

      “They” are going to sell them as a Holiday gift. There will be 4 colors in each box, and I think it’s either Oct or Nov. I wanted them earlier, because frankly other then the earring that come as a set I don’t have any basic earrings to show and sell as a separate earring, and these are perfect to go with everything, but they wanted something for the Holidays, and since they will come in pierced and clip it really was the perfect choice for a Holiday gift.

    Louis,

    I have been checking each day for this cross and can’t wait to get it!!! It is timeless. Do you have an ETA as to when it may be available?

    Hugs,

      I am not sure if it will be posted before my next show on the 21st on QVC2 for my next Big Deal, but surely by then….I hope!….I know it is at QVC and has passed QA so there is nothing to keep it from not being posted. Items that do not have air time are always put on the back burner….

        Thank you for the reply. I will continue to check as much as possible. 😀

        Have a terrific Weekend Louis!!! 🤗🤗🤗

        Hugs,
        Bernadette
