This is a really stunning religious lot most of the metals are very very old the lady said at the estate sale, I'm one always to ask questions and I know we all like our very old religious medals. I don't know for sure before anybody asks if the metals are Sterling or not I don't have a way to test it right now. The cross is golden color with beautiful rhinestones and their settings it hooks by a chain that has pearls that surround it as well it's quite lovely.
