{"product_id":"vintage-bronze-squared-openwork-crucifix","title":"Vintage Bronze Squared Openwork Crucifix","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bronze Squared Openwork Crucifix is built on squared, architectural lines. The arms are broad and flat-ended rather than tapered, pierced through with openwork panels and edged with fine beaded bands, and each of the four terminals opens into a crisp fleur-de-lis. Set into the field behind the head is a small quatrefoil cross.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe effect is formal and rather grand for the size: the openwork keeps the piece light and lets whatever is behind it show through, while the beading gives every edge a definite line. The corpus is modelled with the head fallen to the right and the body drawn long, in the manner of nineteenth-century European work, and the fleur-de-lis at the four ends is the old French sign of the Virgin, set to keep watch at the corners of her son's cross.\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":48943404777657,"sku":"3c3-813-B","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-813-B.png?v=1787688703","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-squared-openwork-crucifix","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
