Description from the seller

Late Medieval Bronze Crucifix – Christ on the Cross

A remarkable bronze crucifix with a detailed depiction of the crucified Christ. The four ends are adorned with graceful trefoil-shaped ornaments, giving the cross an elegant and distinctive appearance.

The crucifix reflects the rich Christian tradition of the late Middle Ages and the early modern period. In this era, such crosses were worn as expressions of faith, protection, and personal devotion.

The aged look is enhanced by the deep dark brown patina, subtle green oxidation traces, and the authentic wear of the surface.

The cross is fitted with a later-added chain, allowing it to be worn as a historical pendant.
