Intaglio jewelry refers to incised (negative) image-making, and is the opposite of cameo. It encompasses engraving and etching.
This Maltese Cross is entirely engraved by hand and set in sterling silver. Made in the United States by one of the finest artisans in the world.
It is universally agreed that the four arms of the Cross represent the four Cardinal Virtues –
Prudence, Temperance, Justice and Fortitude.
