How old is the crucifix?
1 Answer
The crucifix is roughly 1,700 to 2,000 years old. Sculptures depicting Christ on the cross hung on in early Christian churches during the 1st century. Normally, they were on the eastern walls and intended to help worshipers determine which direction to face while in prayer. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Russian lacquer boxes.
