Antique Profession Crucifix, Very Rare Passion of Christ Crucifix, Bronze Inlaid with Ebony Circa 1830
This is an absolutely beautiful example of a 19th century profession crucifix that is very rare in that it is also a Passion of Christ crucifix. I have seen many of these 17th, 18th and 19th century bronze crosses with Ebony inlay but I have never seen one adorned with the instruments of Christ's trial.
It is wonderfully detailed and the figure of Christ is exceptional.
This exceptional piece measures 12 x 6 centimetres.
