The Würzburg crucifix is a hand-carved wall cross with a corpus from Val Gardena, simply stained and well suited to a hallway, living room or parish office. It is for anyone looking for a crucifix with a clear, calm presence.
“Würzburger Kruzifix” (Würzburg crucifix) is the workshop's designation. Whether, and which, Würzburg model is meant cannot be documented, so we stay with the basic meaning: the crucifix recalls Jesus' death on the cross and is a sign of faith and redemption.
- Size: 25 cm (cross length 48 cm)
- Finish: Stained (stain of water and wax in a medium wood tone, slightly glossy)
- Wood: wood from the Gardena Valley – mainly lime wood, depending on size also maple or Swiss stone pine
For a gift, Confirmation (Catholic or Protestant) is an obvious occasion, as is a move into a new home. As a bereavement gift or in memory of someone who has died, it also finds a place in the room of the bereaved.
It takes approx. 3–4 weeks for your Würzburg crucifix to arrive. It comes insured directly from the workshop in South Tyrol, delivery is limited to Germany and Austria and costs €6.90. Because grain and carving marks are never the same, every cross is one of a kind.
