Antique Polish Solid Silver Eastern Orthodox Cross or Crucifix

About the Item

A fine antique Eastern orthodox silver crucifix. In (what we believe to be) .800 polish silver. The crucifix with a wood grain in front of a stylized star and mounted with an INRI plaque, a Christ figure, and a skull & crossbones. Mounted to the reverse with a hook for hanging. Stamped with hallmarks for fineness with a maiden's head, an N, and the number 3. We believe these are polish hallmarks for 800 silver. Stamped also with a maker's mark of R.C. Simply a wonderful crucifix. Date: Late 19th Century Overall condition: It is in overall fair, as-pictured, used estate condition. Condition details: With bends, creases, dings, and indentations throughout. There are two small tear to the left side of the crucifix where it meets the star. There are losses to the side of the 'INRI' plaque including a wing and a side of the scroll, as well as losses to the skull and crossbones. Otherwise, there are some fine & light surface scratches and other signs of expected light wear consistent with age. Maker: R.C. Marks: Stamped with hallmarks for fineness with a maiden's head, an N, and the number 3. We believe these are Polish hallmarks for 800 silver. Stamped also with a maker's mark of R.C. Measurements: height: ca. 14 1/2 in. width: ca. 8 in. depth: ca. 1 in. Weight: ca. 110 g Items purchased from this dealer must delight you.
