Ebony wood cross necklace 1.5 in
Ebony Wood Cross Necklace – 1.5 Inch Black Wooden Cross Pendant for Men and Women
This ebony wood cross necklace is an everyday black wooden cross pendant carved from one solid piece of natural ebony, with no glued parts and no metal. At 1.5 inches tall, it’s our most versatile ebony size: noticeable enough to make a quiet statement, yet understated enough to wear to work, church, or out with friends.
Ebony’s deep, near-black color goes with almost everything, from jeans and a white tee to a dark suit or a simple dress. Its fine, tight grain feels naturally smooth against the skin, and faint brown or gray streaks give each cross its own character, so no two look exactly alike.
Two cords are included: an adjustable nylon cord with a sliding knot for everyday wear, and a waxed cotton cord for a softer, more natural look. Wear it daily, hold it in your hand during prayer, or hang it from your rear view mirror as a car cross.
A meaningful Christian gift for a husband, wife, son, daughter, or friend, perfect for baptism, confirmation, Easter, Christmas, birthdays, or Father’s Day.

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.
