A robed form stands behind the corpus, its own arms running out along the crossbar, so that two hands appear at each arm end, one above the other, and a second nimbed head rises above the head of Christ. The upright is otherwise left almost bare, which makes that discovery the whole design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe arrangement is the Throne of Mercy, one of the oldest ways of showing the Trinity at the cross: God the Father stands behind and upholds the crucified Son. It teaches something the eye can find on its own, that the Father is not absent from Calvary but holding it, and that the Son does not suffer alone. Few crucifixes carry that much theology in so little metal, and fewer still ask you to look twice before you find it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Holy Trinity 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":48943606530233,"sku":"3c3-1223-B","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1223-B.png?v=1787688767","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-holy-trinity-crucifix-throne-of-mercy","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
