Orthodox Cross (with base)

With traditional crucifixion depiction and rich theological symbolism

These high-quality Orthodox wooden crosses feature the crucifixion of Christ in traditional Eastern Church iconography. The depictions are based on classical models of Byzantine and Russian piety, combining spiritual depth with a dignified handcrafted aesthetic.

The icons are precisely applied to beautifully crafted wooden crosses. The warm, natural wood grain and dark contours give the crosses a particularly noble and reverent effect. With their base, they are ideal for prayer corners, home altars, liturgical spaces, or as a spiritual gift.

In the upper section, further iconographic elements appear, such as the Mandylion (the Holy Face of Christ). At the foot of the cross, Adam's skull is depicted – a powerful symbol of redemption, victory over death, and the hope of resurrection. Traditional Church Slavonic or Byzantine inscriptions emphasize the authentic character of these spiritual depictions.
