The Christian cross, seen as a representation of the instrument of the crucifixion of Jesus, is the best-known symbol of Christianity. In addition, some Christians believe that the wearing of a cross offers the wearer protection from evil. Individuals, including Christians and some non-Christians, may also wear cross necklaces as a fashion accessory.

In art, a Madonna is a representation of Mary, either alone or with her child Jesus. The word is from the Italian ma donna 'my lady'. The term Madonna in the sense of "picture or statue of the Virgin Mary" entered English usage in the 17th century, primarily in reference to works of the Italian Renaissance.  "Madonna" may be generally used as a representation of Mary, with or without the infant Jesus, as the focus and central figure of the image, possibly flanked or surrounded by angels or saints.

The Holy Rosary (Latin: rosarium, in the sense of "crown of roses" or "garland of roses"), also known as the Dominican Rosary, or simply the Rosary, refers to a form of prayer psalter used in the Catholic Church and to the string of knots or beads used to count the component prayers. The prayers that compose the Rosary are arranged in sets of ten Hail Marys, called decades. During the recitation of each set, thought is given to one of the Mysteries of the Rosary, which recalls events in the lives of Jesus and of Mary.  Rosary beads are an aid towards saying these prayers in the proper sequence.
