SIZE: 3.7 X 7.2 CM

WEIGHT: 21.9 GRAMS

This unique brass Byzantine-style cross features a detailed depiction of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ in Eastern Orthodox tradition. The front displays the figure of Christ with the inscriptions IC XC (Jesus Christ in Greek) and NIKA (meaning "He conquers") beneath a symbolic skull, representing Adam's grave – a traditional motif in Orthodox iconography.

The reverse side is engraved with "BYZANTINISCHE DEKANIE – NIEDERALTAICH", indicating that the cross originates from the Byzantine Deanery of the Benedictine Abbey of Niederaltaich in Germany – a renowned Western center for Eastern Christian spirituality.

This brass cross is both a spiritual and artistic object, ideal for collectors, clergy, or anyone drawn to sacred art. It also serves beautifully as a devotional or liturgical display piece.
