Antique Reliquary Metal Crucifix with Hidden and 39 similar items

This antique all-metal crucifix is a powerful devotional object crafted with intricate detail. The front features a finely rendered figure of Christ on the cross with a sunburst halo and raised INRI banner. Dark inlays accent the cross?s design, and the entire piece shows a beautiful time-worn patina consistent with its age. Designed not just for display but for sacred use, this crucifix includes a hidden relic compartment accessed by unscrewing the bottom finial. Typically used to house small relics or devotional items, this feature makes the crucifix especially meaningful to clergy, collectors, or those drawn to religious artifacts. Measuring approximately 2.5? in length, this piece is compact enough for carrying or private devotion, and is a remarkable example of early 20th-century Catholic religious craftsmanship.
