Vintage White Bronze Lily Point Crucifix
Product Details
The arms of the Vintage White Bronze Lily Point Crucifix are left smooth and beveled, and each of the four ends carries a single raised lily blossom opening above a pair of crossed leaves. Nothing competes with the corpus at the crossing: the figure is slender, the head inclined to the right, the modeling gentle rather than dramatic.
The lily has stood in Christian art for purity since the earliest days, and set at the four ends of a cross it turns the instrument of the Passion into something that flowers, death opening into new life at every point. The cool white bronze suits that reading, keeping the whole piece bright and restrained where a warmer metal would darken it. At one and three quarter inches it has a good, calm weight.
The Lily Point crucifix was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves the crucifix's 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
