The mariner’s cross or anchor’s cross is one of great meaning of hope to anyone who follows Christian beliefs. A faith in Christ, in Christianity, is symbolized by the cross for those who follow the belief. To a sailor, an anchor means security in a storm and hope for safety. In Christianity, the anchor is also a symbol of hope. Coupling the anchor with a cross and a heart in this mariner’s cross necklace symbolizes faith, hope and charity. This is not exclusive to actual sea going sailors, for Christians identify with storm tossed seas as personal battles of faith. A cross alone is a powerful symbol, adding the anchor adds imagery and strength as well. The mariner’s cross here, made of gold and silver, is an attractive and durable necklace for anyone, but seems most appealing to men. This type of jewelry works for any occasion, even everyday wear.
