Vintage Catholic rosary featuring authentic Spina Christi seeds and a unique hinged reliquary crucifix. This set is a classic mid-century devotional piece.
Spina Christi Prayer Beads: The Ave and Pater beads are crafted from natural, woody seeds of the Ziziphus spina-christi tree, traditionally revered in Christian folklore as the plant used to weave the biblical Crown of Thorns. They feature a lovely deep reddish-brown tone and natural organic texturing.
Hinged Reliquary Crucifix: The top cap of the crucifix acts as a functional hinge, allowing the cross body to split open down the side to access a hidden interior compartment meant for sacred relics or devotional materials. (Missing screw)
Beautiful classic silver-tone casting with fine detail on the corpus of Christ and the decorative details of the crucifix. Good vintage condition with a beautiful natural aged patina on the metalwork.
