The corpus is finely modelled for its size, and set on the crossbar directly behind the outstretched arms are three clear letters: \u003cstrong\u003eIHS\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIHS is the oldest monogram of the Holy Name, taken from the first letters of the name Jesus written in Greek and read later in Latin as \u003cem\u003eIesus Hominum Salvator\u003c\/em\u003e, Jesus, Saviour of men. Placed where the titulus usually goes, it changes what the cross says. Instead of repeating Pilate's charge against a condemned man, it names the one who hangs there and calls him Saviour. The fleur-de-lis around it carries its own old meaning of purity and of the three petals of the Trinity, and gives a small crucifix an unmistakably French elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Fleur-de-Lis 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":48943403401401,"sku":"3c3-817-B","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-817-B.png?v=1787688701","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-fleur-de-lis-crucifix-with-ihs","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
