The cross stone from which the ornament was taken is dated back to the 11th century, and is located in the village Bjni in Armenia. This particular ornament is bolded on the porcelain surface and two such ornaments placed all around the perimeter. The bolded ornament creates an interested visual effect that adds beautiful depth to a simple design. The use of two ornaments also adds a sense of balance and symmetry to the design. The porcelain’s translucent nature creates a soft, diffused light when the candle lit in the holder. This makes the ornament appear more delicate and elegant.
