The corpus hangs in high relief along the shaft, the head fallen to the right, set against a plain fluted panel that keeps the figure clear of the ornament around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe antique original from which this piece was cast carries the date \u003cstrong\u003e1909\u003c\/strong\u003e, which belongs to that original rather than to the casting offered here. Crosses that break into leaf and flower read the wood of the crucifixion as a living tree, so that Good Friday and Easter are held together in one image, and the tradition was still going strong when this pattern was made. Its size gives it real substance, and it finishes a full-length rosary handsomely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Crucifix with Leaf and Flower Ends 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":48943626256569,"sku":"3c3-1124-B","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1124-B.png?v=1787688777","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-crucifix-with-leaf-and-flower-ends","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
