Handcrafted Australian Tasmanian Oak Orthodox Cross: A Symbol of Faith and Tradition

This exquisite Orthodox cross is a testament to both faith and fine Australian craftsmanship. Meticulously precision-cut from durable Tasmanian Oak, a hardwood renowned for its warmth, strength, and unique grain patterns, this cross is designed to be a cherished symbol of your devotion.

Symbols of Faith, Expertly Engraved:

Delve deeper into the rich symbolism of the Orthodox faith with the intricate engravings adorning this cross:

Skull of Adam: At the foot of the cross rests the skull of Adam, a powerful reminder of Christ's sacrifice for the redemption of all humanity.
Christogram (IC XC): The traditional Christogram, "IC" and "XC," representing the first and last letters of Jesus Christ's name in Greek, graces the left and right arms of the cross, symbolising His divine identity and saving power.
Engraved Cross Interior: A subtle line engraving within the cross offers a glimpse into the heart of the symbol, adding an extra layer of visual and spiritual depth

Removable Base: Versatile Display and Storage

The Tasmanian Oak base is designed to hold the cross securely in a slotted design, allowing for both elegant display and convenient storage. A small circle surrounds the slot, adorned with four meticulously engraved square crosses, enriching the symbolism of the piece.

Natural Beauty, Timeless Finish:

Both the cross and base are finished with multiple coats of pure tung oil, a natural, food-safe oil that enhances the warm, golden tones of the Tasmanian Oak. This traditional finish not only protects the wood but also allows you to feel the unique grain patterns, creating a tactile connection to the piece and the natural world from which it came.

Crafted in Australia, A Treasure for Generations:

Handcrafted with love and care in Australia, this Tasmanian Oak Orthodox cross is more than just a decorative item. It's a symbol of faith, a testament to craftsmanship, and an heirloom to be cherished for generations to come. Whether displayed in your home, prayer corner, or given as a meaningful gift, it serves as a constant reminder of the beauty and richness of the Orthodox tradition.

Elevate your spiritual space and connect with your faith through this exquisite, handcrafted Australian Orthodox cross.

Important Note About Tung Oil Finish:

Due to shipping conditions, your handcrafted item may feel slightly oily upon arrival. This is perfectly normal! Tung oil is a natural, food-safe finish that takes time to fully cure. It's also used to protect and enhance the wood's natural beauty.

Simple Care Instructions:

If you notice any excess oil, gently buff the surface with a soft, clean cloth (microfiber is ideal).
Rub in a circular motion, applying light pressure.
Repeat until the surface feels smooth and dry to the touch.
This will help the oil cure faster and give your item a beautiful, lasting shine.

Please Note - Variations: Each item is lovingly handcrafted from natural timber. As such, slight variations in wood grain, colour, and finish may occur between pieces. This is a testament to the unique character of each item and the beauty of handcrafted artistry. Rest assured, however, that each piece is made with the same care and attention to detail, ensuring consistent quality and craftsmanship.

Postage: Auspost - Please allow 1-3 business days for postage and handling. Return Policy: I don't accept returns due to change of mind. However, if the item arrives damaged, please contact me directly for a resolution. Item shipped from Western Australia.
