The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds in its collection an Armenian reliquary cross dating to the 18th century. Crafted from a variety of valuable materiel, the cross was made for the Monastery of St. George at Lim in Western Armenia. The piece is inscribed with a warning, reading "Whoever dares to give it [the relic] as a pledge or take it away from Saint George, let them incur his vengeance."
