{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-modernist-crucifix","title":"Vintage Bronze Modernist Crucifix","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Modernist Crucifix is the boldest piece in this group. Cross and corpus are cast as a single form: the arms sweep upward into sharp pointed terminals with the hands worked at their ends, and the body below narrows into long tapering planes that run down to a plain foot. There is no crossbar as such, no titulus and no halo — only the figure, abstracted almost to a symbol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWork like this belongs to the mid-century revival that ran through European church art, when sculptors stripped the crucifix back toward its Romanesque and Gothic roots and let the material carry the feeling. What is left is the upward sweep of the arms, which reads at once as agony and as ascent. It is a crucifix for someone who wants the subject with no decorative word around it.\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":48943466873017,"sku":"3c3-581-B","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-581-B.png?v=1787688724","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-modernist-crucifix","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
