Λειψανοθήκη - Μητέρα του μαργαριταριού - 19ος αιώνας - Σταυρός του Προσκυνητή
An exquisite 19th-century Jerusalem Cross reliquary, finely carved from mother-of-pearl with the 14 Holy Relics of the Passion of Christ (Via Dolorosa). The cross displays intricate reliefs depicting Christ Crucified and devotional scenes, rendered with remarkable delicacy and luminosity, characteristic of the workshops of Bethlehem and Jerusalem.
This type of cross, often known as a Pilgrim’s Cross, was created for travelers to the Holy Land as both a devotional object and a souvenir of faith. Its iridescent surface captures light in shifting hues, symbolizing divine radiance and the promise of resurrection. Pieces like this exemplify the refined artistry and spiritual devotion of 19th-century Holy Land craftsmanship, uniting the natural beauty of mother-of-pearl with the profound symbolism of the Passion and Redemption of Christ.
