Solid 14k gold with blue enamel.
This is a 20th century design engraved with the Russian
St. Andrew Cross, IC XC for "Jesus Christ", and a symbol representing
the light of Christ at the top. On the reverse side is the Slavonic phrase "spasi
I sokhrani", meaning "save and protect". Tradition teaches that when the
Apostle Andrew preached in southern Russia he placed a life-size three-bar
cross at his side. While explaining the Last Judgement he tilted the foot
plate to signify that those on the right side of Christ will go up into
heaven and those on the left will go down into hell.
