6 1/4 in. Black painted wood with pewter St. Benedict coins and Italian corpus and INRI

The main body of the crucifix is made of black painted wood. Black paint can give the wood a sleek and modern appearance while providing durability and protection. The crucifix features pewter St. Benedict coins and an Italian corpus. St. Benedict coins typically bear the image of St. Benedict, a Christian saint known for his influence in monasticism and his association with warding off evil spirits. The Italian corpus refers to the figure of Jesus Christ on the cross, likely crafted with traditional Italian craftsmanship known for its attention to detail. The crucifix includes the INRI inscription, standing for "Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum" (Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews). This inscription is commonly found on crucifixes, representing the charge placed on Jesus by Pontius Pilate according to the New Testament.
