{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-skull-and-crossbones-crucifix","title":"Vintage Bronze Skull and Crossbones Crucifix","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Skull and Crossbones Crucifix is tall and slender, its arms cast as rough knotted timbers rather than smooth bars. A burst of rays spreads behind the head of Christ, a crown-like crest sits above the top arm, and the corpus is modelled long and thin in the older European manner. Below the feet, set into the shaft, is a small skull with crossed bones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat skull is Golgotha, the place of the skull, and by old tradition the grave of Adam lying directly beneath the cross, so that the blood of the second Adam falls upon the first. It is one of the oldest images in Christian art and one of the most consoling: death shown underfoot, with the death that undoes it standing over. At nearly two and a half inches this is a striking devotional crucifix with real weight in the hand.\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":48943405105337,"sku":"3c3-851-B","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-851-B.png?v=1787688701","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-skull-and-crossbones-crucifix","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
