About the Item

Sculptural 18th century Italian gilded cross mounted on hematite with natural-forming pyrite. Gold-plated crystals adorn each point of the cross. Gold-plated crystal points also surround the inside of the cross to replicate a halo or sunrays. The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she transformed the piece and the period shows that the Italian cross is originally 18th century. The Italian cross is preserved and transformed into a figurative, contemporary work of art. With the combination of organic elements, the church artifact becomes a sculptural work of historic and organic significance. Interi is known for its precious collections of sculptural ecclesiastical artifacts. Recently Interi exhibited The Crucifix Collection with Museo de' Medici in Florence, Italy which just closed April 21st, 2024.
