The quatrefoil is a suggestive cross form. In historic Christianity, the four lobes of the quatrefoil represent the four gospel evangelists and the four compass directions, serving as a symbol of the spread of the gospel to the ends of the earth. Four equal foils represent equal proportion, balance, harmony, and wholeness. It doesn't protrude or intrude. It fills and includes. Having no sharp external edges, it can remind us that somehow, our faith walk and that of others must co-exist compatibly, to proclaim the truths of our own tradition without hard edges or harsh boundaries.

H57, H58, H59, H60 QUATREFOIL CROSSES
These crosses are derivatives of the pectoral cross I made for the consecration of The Rt. Rev. C. Andrew Doyle. Bishop Doyle was consecrated on November 22, 2008, to serve as a bishop for the Episcopal Diocese of Texas. These botanical resurrection symbols are featured on the trefoil ends of his budded cross. With Bishop’s Doyle’s blessings I made each into a stand-alone quatrefoil cross from a mold of his gold pectoral cross. I donate a percentage of these cross sales to be used in Bishop’s Doyle’s ministry.

all crosses in this series have hidden loops for chain
my chain recommendation is the 1.5mm omega style

The pectoral cross project is documented in the special projects section.
