{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-colonial-latin-american-crucifix","title":"Vintage Bronze Colonial Latin American Crucifix","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Colonial Latin American Crucifix breaks its arms into cast scrollwork and leaves, crowns the upright with a rosette and spreads the foot into a scrolled base, so that the whole outline is closer to silver altar work than to a plain Latin cross. Behind the head is a rayed halo, the loincloth is knotted at the hip, and the corpus itself is small, upright and calm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrosses of this eighteenth-century form were carried and worn across the old Spanish colonies, where local silversmiths repeated the patterns for generations and every household kept one. The ornament is generous and the figure is quiet, which is exactly the balance colonial work aimed for: a crucifix that could be handled every day and still look like something made for an altar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\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":48942660649145,"sku":"3c3-983-B","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-983-B.png?v=1787688703","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-colonial-latin-american-crucifix","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
