An antique crucifix featuring a silver metal plated figure of Christ (Corpus Christi) set against a rich red velvet background. The crucifix is protected by a hand-blown convex glass and encased in an elegant french polished ebonised wooden frame. Dating from circa 1870–1900, this piece would likely have been hung in a private residence for personal worship. Please note, due to the fragility of the glass, it cannot be sent via courier.
