If you love rare vintage designer jewellery, statement pieces and jewellery with a real sense of drama, this vintage Butler & Wilson Maltese Cross pendant is one to look out for. Butler & Wilson is known for bold, theatrical costume jewellery, and this is exactly the sort of piece that makes you stop and look twice. It is a huge vintage Maltese Cross pendant, measuring approximately 7.5cm across, with vibrant red and pink cut-glass crystals set into gold-tone metal.
The chunky twisted rope chain adds even more impact, making this a genuine statement vintage necklace rather than an everyday piece that disappears into an outfit.
The combination of the oversized cross, vivid crystal colour and substantial gold-tone setting gives it that wonderfully extravagant vintage designer jewellery feel. It would be particularly striking worn with a simple black dress, jacket or evening outfit where the necklace can do all the talking.
