Representing the Roman Catholic Church, Mark O'Toole, the Archbishop of Cardiff and Bishop of Menevia, said his church accepted the cross"with a sense of deep joy," adding that it is a sign of the nation's"deep Christian roots.". The Cross of Wales was designed by master silversmith Michael Lloyd and made with Welsh materials: recycled silver from the Royal Mint in Llantrisant; Welsh slate for the stand; and Welsh windfall wood for the shaft.Charles also participated in its creation, hammering the hallmark onto the silver cross himself.
Tim Knox, director of the Royal Collection, the British monarchy's private art collection, described the cross as"inspired by medieval Welsh art and design," combining historical reference with contemporary craft. The back of the cross is adorned with words from the last sermon of St. David, the patron saint of Wales, in Welsh:"Byddwch lawen. Cadwch y ffydd. Gwnewch y pethau bychain," translating to:"Be joyful. Keep the faith. Do the little things."
