This very large Cross belongs to the group of processional crosses which accompanies each procession of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. This is the largest sized cross of such kind. The cross has a hollow shaft for mounting on a wooden handle, so that it can be carried above the heads of people in processions and religous ceremonies. The two lower arms are made for the hanging of the cloth which accompanies the Cross when it is carried by the deacons. The cloth reminds on Christ's dresses. The Cross is handcraftet by the lost-wax method, so every piece is a unique one. This cross is from Aksum.
Material: an aloy of silver, copper and nickel. Silverplated.
Condition: the cross is firmly made and flat enough to stand on it's own.
