Cassandra's inspiration for her Suffolk Cross design comes from a cross found in Suffolk, that is part of the Royal Collection and now in the British Museum. The gold cross set with four pearls and engraved on one side was discovered in 1866 during the construction of the railway station on the site of Clare Castle in Suffolk. From Cassandra's Classic Collection.

Suffolk Cross in silver with pearls. The pendant, including loop, measures approximately 22x14mm. All pendants sold without chains. Personalisation available.
Cassandra herself designs all her jewels and works closely with her stone cutters and craftsmen throughout the process from design through to creation including on her bespoke projects.
Ever in search of the unusual and rare, Cassandra travels the world to source beautiful gemstones, either in the rough or cut form.
The craftsman works as an artist recreating the design in metal. The jewel is then mounted, assayed, polished and set.
