The Story Behind the Maltese Cross

The Maltese Cross is instantly recognizable for its distinctive geometric shape and strong, symmetrical lines. I wanted to create it as a richly dimensional piece of beadwork rather than a flat brooch.

Multiple layers of carefully woven beads give the design its sculptural quality. Brilliant blue crystals provide the focal point, while pearls, black accents, and sparkling details create contrast and depth.

The result is a small but dramatic piece that combines the precision of bead weaving with the brilliance of fine jewelry.

Design by Elena Kostrikina.
