Vintage Bronze Shield-Arm Crucifix
Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Shield-Arm Crucifix takes its name from the broad shield-shaped plates that finish each arm. Every terminal carries a rosette set above a fan of fine rays, the same ornament is repeated at the head and the foot, and the corpus is modelled with the head fallen to the right and the loincloth knotted at the hip.
Nothing is lettered on it. The devotion is carried by the figure alone and by the light that catches in those rayed panels, which is what gives a cross of this kind its presence when it is worn, the rays reading as the glory that belongs to the Cross even at the moment it looks most like defeat. It suits anyone who wants a crucifix with some ornament to it and no inscription to explain.
The crucifix was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
