{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-roma-crucifix-with-sunburst-and-palmettes","title":"Vintage Bronze Roma Crucifix with Sunburst and Palmettes","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe four arms of the Vintage Bronze Roma Crucifix flare outward and end in fan-shaped palmettes cut with fine ribs, so that the whole cross opens outward like a flower. A sunburst spreads in the ground behind the crossing, and a row of raised beads runs down the lower shaft to the foot. The corpus is slender, the head inclined to the right, the modeling clean and unfussy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRayed grounds and palmette arms belong to a long Roman tradition of crucifix making, and the combination here is a confident one: light behind the cross, and the arms of the cross breaking into leaf. There is no lettering on the piece and none is needed, since the ornament carries it entirely. Poured, cleaned and antiqued by hand, each casting holds the finish a little differently in its recesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Roma 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":48943600763065,"sku":"3c3-1240-B","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-1240-B.png?v=1787688767","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-roma-crucifix-with-sunburst-and-palmettes","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
