14k White Gold Cross Pendant vs 14k White Gold Crucifix Cross Pendant

The two pendants look alike at a glance but are built differently. The 14k White Gold Cross Pendant is solid, cast, and heavier, with a flat textured back and rhodium plating; owners describe it as better in person and well made. The Jewelry Stores Network crucifix is hollow and die struck, lighter, and carries a Jesus figure with an INRI plaque. Buy the solid cross for a plain, durable everyday piece; buy the crucifix if the corpus and inscription matter to you.

• Choose the 14k White Gold Cross Pendant if you want a solid, plain cross that holds up to daily wear and has a flat back that sits against the skin.
• Choose the Jewelry Stores Network crucifix if you want a crucifix with a detailed corpus and INRI inscription and prefer a lighter pendant.
