Spanish Silver Four Evangelists Cross, Christ Crucified, Catholic Devotional Cross

A striking Spanish silver cross depicting Christ crucified and surrounded by the Four Evangelists: St Matthew, St Mark, St Luke, and St John.

The cross is richly detailed, with each Evangelist shown within a roundel at the ends of the arms, while the centre features Christ on the Cross set against radiating rays. The reverse is plain and retains its original suspension loop. A small stamped mark is present near the loop.

The Four Evangelists are clearly identified by name, making this an especially interesting devotional piece and a distinctive example of Christian religious art. Larger than many crosses of this type, it has a wonderful presence whether displayed as part of a collection or used in a devotional setting.

The piece was acquired in Spain and is believed to be silver. The exact age is uncertain, but it is made in a traditional devotional style.

Condition is good vintage condition with age-related wear and patina consistent with use. Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
