In the style of a 6th century cross from the Holy Roman Empire, this is named after the Monastery in Constantinople.

Abbot Sabas of Stoudios zealously defended the Orthodox doctrines against the Iconoclasts at the Second Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787).

His successor was Theodore the Studite to whom the monastery owes most of its fame, and who especially fostered academic and spiritual study. Famously reinstating the Canon in the Hagia Sophia.

Simple enough to complement any outfit, yet rich in historical and spiritual significance, it makes an ideal everyday devotional piece or a thoughtful gift for anyone with a love of Orthodox or Byzantine Christian tradition.

Perfect as a:

Christening gift, Anniversary Gift, Best Friend Gift, Father's Day Gifts, Valentine's Day Gift, Christmas gift, or a baptism gift for the newly illumined Christian.

All our jewelry is handcrafted in the UK by Dunstan in our workshop. All items are made to order and blessed in the altar of our local Orthodox Church by our Priest. Choose your finish: Sterling Silver, Patina, or Vermeil Gold Plating.
