| Reverse description | An elaborate ornamental cross in Art Nouveau style dominates the field, featuring interlaced Celtic knotwork decoration extending to the borders. A descending dove with spread wings is depicted at the top of the cross, with kneeling angels in relief on either side. Two open book-shaped panels flank the vertical arm of the cross, engraved with the recipient's personal dedication: name, birth date, and baptism date. |
