{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-crucifix-with-knotwork-terminals","title":"Vintage Bronze Crucifix with Knotwork Terminals","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Crucifix with Knotwork Terminals is a well-balanced cross of moderate size. The corpus hangs at the crossing, the head fallen to one side and the loincloth knotted at the hip, and each of the four terminals is worked with an interlaced ribbon-and-bead ornament that flares out to a rounded end. A small round finial finishes the top of the shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe interlace gives the cross an older, almost insular character, the kind of knotted band that runs through early medieval metalwork in Ireland and Northumbria, where a line without beginning or end stood for eternity. Against it the corpus is modelled in a softer, later manner, and it is that meeting of two centuries in a single small object that makes the piece worth looking at closely. Nothing is lettered on it; the form carries the devotion by itself.\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":48943637889209,"sku":"3c3-1086-B","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1086-B.png?v=1787688779","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-crucifix-with-knotwork-terminals","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
