Rooted in faith. Crafted in gold.
The Veljusa Cross is a timeless emblem of Macedonian Orthodoxy — exquisitely crafted in 14ct gold and imbued with profound spiritual and historical meaning. A revered variation of the Christian cross, it stands as an official symbol of the Macedonian Orthodox Church, carried forward through centuries of devotion.
Its design pays homage to the Veljusa Monastery, where it was first discovered etched into the sacred walls of the Church of the Holy Mother of God Eleusa in the 11th century. Founded by Bishop Manuel of Strumica, this symbol has transcended time as a testament to divine mercy, faith, and Macedonian identity.
Majestic. Enduring. Unmistakably Macedonian.
More than jewellery — it is a legacy of faith, worn with reverence and pride.
Heritage & History
Heritage & History
The Veljusa Cross traces its origins to the Veljusa Monastery near Strumica, built in the 11th century by Bishop Manuel. This distinctive cross was discovered carved into the stone wall of the monastery’s church — the Church of the Holy Mother of God Eleusa (the Merciful). Since then, it has become a sacred emblem of Macedonian Orthodoxy, symbolising divine mercy, spiritual strength, and national identity.
Recognised today as an official symbol of the Macedonian Orthodox Church, the Veljusa Cross carries with it nearly a millennium of history. Its presence in Macedonian homes and jewellery is more than decorative — it is a connection to faith, ancestry, and the enduring spirit of a people who have carried their traditions across centuries.
To wear the Veljusa Cross is to honour where you come from — and to carry it with pride into the future. Read More
