About the Item
An exceptional, fine and impressive antique 1800s Italian silver travelling crucifix; an addition to our religious silverware collection.
This exceptional antique Italian silver travelling crucifix has been crafted with an oak wood back.
The impressive cross design is ornamented with a cast and applied figure of Jesus Christ, surrounded by angel and putto designs, all below the plaque bearing the initials 'INRI'; (Latinate 'INRI', Greek 'INBI') pertains to 'Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews'.
This antique silver crucifix is further embellished with a skull and crossbones below the corpse; this denotes Golgotha (Calvary), which was the location of Jesus' crucifixion and translates from Hebrew as 'the place of the skull'.
Each cross bar terminates with an impressive applied palmette style design.
The Italian silver crucifix detaches from the original wood base; this allows the piece to be easily transported.
The base is ornamented with applied silver mounts to the edges in addition to an emblem of Our Lady of Sorrows; this illustrates Virgin Mary sorrowfully portrayed with a long knife/dagger piercing her chest.
This piece bears a label pertaining to the prior owner: 'Rev. P. O'Brien of St John's, Woodhouse Lane Manchester, M22 7NW'.
Condition
This early 19th century, antique travelling crucifix is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition.
The hallmarks struck to the surface of the cross bar are clear in keeping with age and location.
Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this piece of antique silverware.
