About the Item

An 19th-century French altar crucifix crafted in richly gilded bronze. This ecclesiastical piece stands on a tri-lobed base, each panel featuring a finely detailed medallion representing the Holy Trinity, a rare and symbolic motif. The cross itself is adorned with intricate Gothic-inspired ornamentation, highlighting the reverence and craftsmanship of the period. Likely originating from a church or private chapel, this crucifix embodies both devotional significance and exceptional artistry. The warm patina of the gilding adds depth and character, making it an outstanding example of 19th-century liturgical bronze work. Ideal as a sacred collectible, devotional focal point, or as a striking decorative object with historical and spiritual resonance.
