Against that geometry the corpus is slender and softly modelled, mounted on a plain raised shaft that runs the height of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbove the head a small tablet is lettered \u003cstrong\u003eINRI\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Latin \u003cem\u003eIesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum\u003c\/em\u003e, Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews. The streamlined symmetry is pure Art Deco, from the years when religious metalwork took up the same clean radiating lines as the architecture rising around it, and the effect is a crucifix that opens outward in every direction from the point where Christ is fixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Art Deco rayed 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtisan-cast from an antique original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Equatoria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48943505572025,"sku":"3c3-342-B","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-342-B.png?v=1787688734","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-art-deco-rayed-crucifix-342","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
