This is a stunning example of authentic Antique Tramp Art in the form of a Standing Cross, expertly crafted in the classic "Crown of Thorns" style. This piece would be a beautiful addition to any collection of Americana, primitives or religious art.

The entire body is built from meticulously whittled, notched, and interlocking wooden bars that form a beautiful geometric, self-supporting structure. Crown of Thorns primitives are primarily held together by their clever interlocking design.

It is in great antique folk art condition with minimal wear. It is sturdy, complete, and structurally sound. Displays a gorgeous, authentic aged patina consistent with its historical antique status. However, it does lean to one side; either forward or backward depending on placement. This anomaly can be seen in the photos.

This is a beautiful, small-scale/miniature desktop variation. All measurements are taken by hand to the closest approximation.

Measurements are as follows:

Height: 6 3/4"

Length: 4 3/4"

Width: 2"

Weight: 1.2 Ounces

Please message if further measurements are needed. All photos are of the actual item. Photos are part of the description. I've done my best to include as many photographs as possible to show the item's condition.

All vintage, or antique, pieces have lived another life. Light wear, minor scuffs, or subtle imperfections are to be expected and are part of what makes each item one of a kind. If you’re looking for factory-perfect, brand-new condition, antique may not be the right fit. Please review the photos carefully and feel free to ask for additional close-ups before making a purchase.
