A devotional cross from the early 20th century, composed of a carved mother-of-pearl base with openwork silver finials and an applied silver figure of Christ. The design is notable for its Art Nouveau ornamentation and the expressiveness of the Christ figure in relief.

This modernist religious piece was likely made in Europe, either for devotional use or as a large rosary pendant. It features rivets on the back and a sturdy ring at the top for hanging. The openwork design evokes the liturgical ornamentation of the historicist period.

Ideal for collectors of antique religious objects or as a gift.

Things you should know

What you are buying (important)

We sell antique and vintage items. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.

If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
