Diamond Cross Charm – Perpetua
$34.95
925 sterling silver infinity cross dangle, one diagonal line of pavé-set clear cubic zirconia, plain polished loops, oval bail with engraved heart, for snake chain bracelets.
- At the office, the 0.32 in (0.83 cm) width lets it slide quietly under a shirt cuff.
- For evenings, the diagonal line of clear cubic zirconia picks up low lamp light as the wrist turns.
- As a baptism or confirmation gift, the heart engraved on the bail is a small detail found later.
- In a crowded stack it can vanish between wide beads, so give it a clear stretch of chain.
- For anyone expecting real diamonds, these are cubic zirconia stones, which keeps it priced as a charm.
Our Take
What the eye catches first is the single line of stones cutting diagonally through the cross, so from arm’s length it reads more like a sparkling curve than a cross; up close, the plain loops give the shape back. At 0.32 in across it is narrow, and once it is on the wrist it stops announcing itself. That same slimness is the limit: next to wide beads it simply vanishes.

Description
An Infinity Loop Drawn Into a Cross, With One Line Set in Stone
This diamond cross charm takes its sparkle from cubic zirconia, not from diamond, and the stones are only half the design. The cross is drawn as one continuous strand of 925 sterling silver that loops over itself like an infinity sign stood upright. A single diagonal line, running from the top through the crossing and down the long stem, is pavé set with small round clear stones, while the loops on the other side stay plain and polished. The drop measures 0.89 in (2.27 cm) from bail to foot and 0.32 in (0.83 cm) across. Its oval bail carries a small engraved heart and an S925 stamp.
Will people read it as a cross or as an infinity sign?
That depends on distance. From across a table, the stone line is what catches light, and it runs diagonally, so the charm reads first as a sparkling curve. The plain infinity loops only give the cross its shape back when the wrist comes closer. For some buyers that ambiguity is the appeal. Anyone who wants the cross to be unmistakable at a glance will be better served by a straight Latin cross with stones on both bars.
Are the open loops strong enough for daily wear?
For normal wear, yes. Each loop is a narrow strand with open space inside it, which keeps the drop light but also means a hard pinch or a snag on a sweater can pull a curve out of true. Take the bracelet off before sports and gardening. If a loop does bend, a jeweler can ease it back; pushing it with pliers at home tends to crack the stone line. Carry it on the wrist rather than loose in a pocket, where keys can press the loops flat.
What does cubic zirconia change compared with diamond?
Price, first. Cubic zirconia is a lab-made stone rated around 8 to 8.5 on the Mohs scale against 10 for diamond, so it resists everyday scratches but picks up a film from lotion and skin oil sooner. That film is what makes it look dull after a few months. Warm soapy water and a soft brush worked through the open back of the settings bring the brightness back. Skip ultrasonic cleaners on a charm this fine, since the vibration can loosen small pavé stones over repeated cycles.
FAQ
Where is the 925 stamp?
On the bail. The S925 mark is stamped on the side of the oval ring, next to the hole, and a small heart is engraved on the opposite face. Both are visible once the charm is off the bracelet.
Can it be engraved with a name?
No. The loops are narrow curved strands and the stone line leaves no flat surface wide enough for letters. For a name or date, pair it with a separate engravable disc or bar charm on the same bracelet.
Would this suit a man’s bracelet?
It depends on the bracelet. At 0.32 in wide with one fine stone line, it reads delicate, and on a heavy men’s chain it looks undersized. On a slim snake chain worn alone, it works for anyone who likes a discreet cross.
The cross keeps turning sideways
The oval bail rotates around the chain and the cross swings from a small ring beneath it, so the face turns with the wrist. It settles back toward the front once the arm is still.
