Description

- Large wooden altar cross veneered with blackened wood and red-tinted tortoise shells.

It is decorated with a titulus and other gilded carved wooden elements which add to its elegance; fleurons extending its arms, foliage at its base placed in cushioning to soften the right angles. This cross surmounts an octagonal base punctuated by an alternation of blackened wood moldings and tortoiseshell facets. This base rests on six flattened ball feet, their ovoid shape echoes that of the two stretched vases located a little higher

.- 19th century work imitating 18th century Flemish crucifixes.

Height: 140 cm Width of the cross: 58 cm
