BLACK WOOD ST. BENEDICT CRUCIFIX ON STAND
In the mid-1600's, devotion spread to the Cross of St. Benedict and a medal was struck to honor him as he was considered a secure defense against the tricks of satan. The honor of being featured on a medal was conferred to him because of the miracles of the cross in his hands.
This table top crucifix is made of ash wood with a deep black stained finish. The corpus of Jesus and the medal of St. Benedict are both silver plated.
Measures 6".
Made in the USA by skilled New England craftsmen.
