Fine rays are cut into the ground behind the crossing and spread out around the corpus, a textured panel stands above the head, and the foot finishes in a small scrolled finial.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is a crucifix with an almost architectural feel, geometric where most are foliate, and the contrast is the point of it: against all that ruled and measured metal the body of Christ is modeled softly, the head inclined, the figure long and quiet. Because the arms are open, light passes through the cross as well as behind it, doubling the effect of the rays cut into the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe open square 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":48943606661305,"sku":"3c3-1216-B","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1216-B.png?v=1787688769","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-open-square-crucifix-with-rays","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
