What is a crucifix?
A crucifix was a wooden cross used for crucifixions by many civilisations, such as the Romans. The crucifix has now become highly symbolic. Many people of the Christian faith choose to wear them on chains around their necks, while in popular culture, crucifixes have tapped into the gothic psyche. Think vampires, old churches, dungeons and gargoyles. Many of our antique crucifixes are hand-crafted by skilled artisans centuries ago.
