Large Walnut Wood Cross Necklace – 1.8 Inch Wooden Cross Pendant and Car Mirror Cross

This walnut wood cross necklace is a large natural wooden cross pendant carved from one solid piece of walnut, with no glued parts and no metal. At 1.8 inches tall, it’s the boldest size in our walnut collection: a strong, rustic Christian cross where the wood’s grain and warm brown tones are on full display.

Walnut’s flowing grain lines look especially striking at this size, giving the cross an honest, handcrafted feel. Every piece is cut from a different part of the wood, so the color and pattern of yours will be one of a kind. It’s strong yet lightweight, so even the largest size feels comfortable to wear all day.

Two cords are included: an adjustable nylon cord with a sliding knot, and a waxed cotton cord for a more rustic look. Thanks to its size, this cross is also a great rear view mirror cross. Loop the nylon cord around the mirror for a visible reminder of faith on every drive, then wear it as a necklace when you step out. You can also hold it in your hand during prayer.

A meaningful Christian gift for a husband, father, son, brother, or friend, perfect for confirmation, Easter, Christmas, birthdays, or Father’s Day.

Size & Fit

Cross dimensions
1.8 in high × 1.1 in wide (45 × 28 mm)

That’s just under the height of two US quarters placed edge to edge, and slightly wider than a single quarter.

How it looks when worn
The 1.8 in walnut cross is bold and easy to see. Its warm brown tone stands out on white, gray, and black, and pairs naturally with flannel, denim, and earthy colors. It feels solid on the chest without being heavy.

Who it suits
A top choice for men who want a large, rustic wooden cross necklace, and for anyone who loves a natural statement piece. Its size also makes it the best walnut option for hanging on a rear view mirror.

Cords
The adjustable nylon cord ranges from 13.5 to 27.5 in (34–70 cm) with a sliding knot, so you can wear the cross just below the collarbone, let it hang at mid-chest over a sweater, or loop it around your car mirror. Switch to the included waxed cotton cord for an even more rustic, natural look.

Looking for a different size?
The same walnut cross also comes in 1.5 in (medium, everyday size) and 1.2 in (small, delicate look).

About walnut

Walnut is a classic hardwood known for its warm brown color and distinct, flowing grain lines. On a cross this size, the grain pattern becomes a real design feature. Over time and with sunlight, walnut can gently lighten and take on a warmer, golden tone, a natural aging that gives your cross extra character.

Care Instructions

  • Keep it dry. Remove your cross before showering, swimming, or washing dishes. Water can dull the wood finish and wash the wax out of the cotton cord.
  • Avoid chemicals. Put on perfume, lotion, and hairspray before your necklace, not after.
  • Wipe it clean. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and skin oils.
  • Refresh the shine. If the wood looks dry, rub in a tiny drop of food-safe mineral oil or beeswax, then wipe off the excess. Walnut responds especially well to oil, which brings out its grain.
  • Store it safely. Keep the cross and both cords in the gift pouch when not in use, away from direct sunlight and heat.
  • In the car: Strong, direct sunlight will gradually lighten walnut’s color. If you’d like to keep its original deep tone, consider using a sunshade when your car is parked in the sun.

Is this cross made from real wood?

Yes. Every Holy Fringe cross is cut from one solid piece of natural wood, with no glued parts and no plastic or metal. Because it’s real wood, each pendant has its own grain and shade, so no two crosses look exactly alike.

Does the necklace come with an extra cord?

Yes. Along with the adjustable nylon cord, every cross includes a second cord made of waxed cotton. Waxed cotton has a softer, more natural look that pairs beautifully with real wood, while the nylon cord is ideal for everyday wear and for hanging the cross on a car mirror. Switch between them whenever you like to match your outfit or mood.

Will my cross look exactly like the one in the photos?

Not exactly, and that’s what makes it special. Each cross is cut from natural ebony, rosewood, or walnut, so the grain pattern, color depth, and shade vary from piece to piece. The cross you receive may look slightly different from the one in our photos, but these natural differences aren’t flaws. They make every cross truly one of a kind.

How can I use my wooden cross?

There are three ways to enjoy it. Wear it every day as a simple wooden cross necklace, hang it from your rear view mirror as a car cross, or hold it in your hand during prayer. The smooth natural wood feels warm and comfortable in your palm, making it a quiet companion for daily devotion, reflection, or moments when you need peace.

Which size wooden cross should I choose?

The 1.2 in cross (0.75 in wide) is small and subtle, the 1.5 in (0.94 in wide) is our everyday all-rounder, and the 1.8 in (1.1 in wide) is bolder and easy to see. If you’re buying a gift and aren’t sure, the 1.5 in size suits most men and women.

Is this cross necklace for men or for women?

Both. The simple, clean shape works as a wooden cross necklace for men and as a natural, understated piece for women. Many customers choose the 1.2 in size for a more delicate look and the 1.8 in size for a stronger statement.

How long is the cord, and can I adjust it?

The nylon cord adjusts from 13.5 to 27.5 in (34–70 cm) with a sliding knot. You can wear the cross close to your collarbone, at mid-chest, or let it hang low, and change the length anytime.

Can I hang the cross on my car mirror?

Yes. Loop the adjustable cord around your rear view mirror and slide the knot to secure it, so no separate hanger is needed. Many customers use it as a car cross during the week and wear it as a necklace on Sundays.

Is this a crucifix?

No. This is a plain Christian cross without the figure of Jesus. A crucifix includes the body of Christ on the cross, while a plain cross symbolizes the Resurrection and is worn across many Christian traditions, including Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant.

Can I wear my wooden cross in the shower or while swimming?

We recommend taking it off. Water can dull the natural finish and cause the wood to swell over time. A quick wipe with a soft, dry cloth is all the cleaning your cross needs.

Is the necklace safe for sensitive skin?

The necklace contains no metal, so there’s no nickel, no plating, and nothing to tarnish or turn your skin green. It’s a good choice for anyone who reacts to metal jewelry.

Is it a good gift?

Yes. Every cross arrives in a Holy Fringe gift pouch, ready to give. It’s a meaningful Christian gift for baptism, first communion, confirmation, Easter, Christmas, Father’s Day, or simply to remind someone they’re in your prayers.

Is it suitable for children?

Our crosses are made for teens and adults. We don’t recommend the necklace for young children, since any cord worn around the neck can pose a strangulation risk.

Slip It On, Slide the Knot

Our wooden cross necklace adjusts in seconds. Wear it close to your collarbone or let it hang low, the fit is always yours to choose.

*Colors and sizes may vary slightly from what’s shown in the video, as every cross is made from natural wood.

Nice cross, the string had to go, but is a beautiful cross.

Well, I like the cross! It's a nice piece of wood, and looks very sacred. The string it was attached to didn't work out, too small for me and also would hang up against my skin. Put on a keyring and hung on my existing medical necklace. Much better this way. The sentiment is great. Would make a nice addition to your faith life or for someone who might be interested in such.

My Simple Wooden Cross Necklace

I finally got my simple wooden cross. It's exactly what I hoped for and even has one of those fancy adjustable bands. I originally had issues with it being lost in shipment but the seller was kind to send me a replacement overnight. Great purchase, great overall value.

Great for power occupations

I've been wanting a cross for a while now. However, as an electrician, a metal necklace is out of the question. I found this one, and it's been wonderful having God close to my heart while I work.

Very durable

Thus cross is perfect. It shows your belief and lasts very long. I was worried about the longevity of it, but it has lasted a very long time and I highly recommend it. It's very light and reassuring to know that you have.
