The cross itself is plain, a bar and an upright with the corpus at the crossing, and around it rises a pierced border of curling leaves and scrolls that crests above the cross and closes below in a small heart-shaped drop. All the ornament sits in the openwork, which leaves the figure clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbove the crossbar is a raised titulus with the four letters \u003cstrong\u003eINRI\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Latin abbreviation of the charge Pilate fixed over the cross: \u003cem\u003eIesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum\u003c\/em\u003e, Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews. It was written to mock him and has been read ever since as the plain truth, which is why those four letters appear on nearly every crucifix made. On the antique original they are worn shallow, and this casting keeps that wear.\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":48943411691705,"sku":"3c3-854-B","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-854-B.png?v=1787688703","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-crucifix-pendant-in-ornate-frame","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
