Church cross made of pear wood and copper image

"One cross sanctifies both the altar of the church and the threshold of the family home."

The cross with a crucifix is a traditional symbol of the Orthodox faith, equally appropriate in church rituals and in the daily life of a family. This model is made of pear wood and complemented by an overlay of copper depicting Jesus Christ — the central element of the composition.

Product Description

The cross is made of pear wood — a dense wood with an even texture and warm natural hue. The main element is the metal copper image of Jesus Christ, secured at the center of the cross. The size of the product is 23x12 cm. Such a cross can be used in church rituals in temples as well as serve as a talisman in every home.

Each cross is handmade, so there may be slight variations in the shade of the wood and the texture of the metal — this is a natural feature of handwork, not a defect.
