Ferrari & Arrighetti Crucifix, Christ of The Alps, Wood Stained in 3 Brown Shades, Cross: 65cm / 25½ in, Jesus: 30cm / 11¾ in – Demetz Deur

Wooden crucifix depicting the Christ of the Alps. The body of Jesus is portrayed on a pastoral cross with a very rough surface, with the characteristic curved horizontal cross arm. The wood is tinted with three different shades of brown stain and eventually polished with wax. The crucifix has heart-warming look thanks to the polishing and using the warm brown tones. The body of Jesus (about 30 cm / 11 ¾ in tall) is in point of fact detailed, and the face used to be created to express the suffering felt by the Saviour. The cross (about 36 cm / 14 in wide x 65 cm / 25 ½ in tall) is without doubt one of the most important symbols of Christianity. It’s a sign of peace and redemption, in addition to the link between the earthly being of the Saviour and humanity. This Christ of the Alps crucifix is wisely designed, carved, and finished by hand by skilled artisans at Deur, a well-known family-run sculpture workshop founded in 1966 and specialising in the creation of artistic wooden handicrafts, embellished with quite a lot of quality finishes. In the splendid Val Gardena – an Italian area devoted to masterful woodcarving – creativity, passion, and attention to detail blend together to create this cross and other fancy wooden sculptures portraying a plethora of subjects, to be had in different sizes and finishes. As a result of craft production, the stated dimensions are merely indicative and won’t exactly correspond to the exact ones.
