About the Item

18th century Italian gold leaf and painted crucifix with quartz crystals and gilded sunrays. It is mounted on a milky quartz crystal base. The 18th century cross is adorned with the quartz crystals and sunrays around the top of the crucifix and on the base. The milky quartz crystal perfectly matches the painted crucifix.  The Italian crucifix is preserved and transformed into a figurative, contemporary work of art. With the combination of the precious minerals, 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.
