Product Details
The Vintage Bronze Woven Cross is finished on both faces, with flared and notched arm ends and a surface worked all over in a basketwork weave overlaid with curling foliate scrolls. A plain round boss sits at the crossing, the one quiet place in a design that is otherwise full of movement.
Textured crosses of this kind were made to be handled. The weave gives the fingers something to find, which is part of why such a cross was carried in a pocket as often as it was worn — a small, steady thing to hold onto through a long day or a hard hour. There is no corpus and no lettering, so the shape does all the work, and it does it plainly. Hand antiquing settles unevenly into the weave, so no two come out quite alike.
The woven cross was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
