Gold pendant in the shape of an arched frame. The frame has a rough, uneven edge. The top of the frame has a small loop. The arch is filled with black enamel and gold designs. The center has a blue and white enamel design with a gold outline. The blue enamel forms a cross-like shape with a rounded top. The white enamel appears to have an image, but it is difficult to discern. The background of the image is gray.
