€8.97
Unique, handcrafted collector's item with deep historical and religious symbolism. This is a faithful copy of an ancient bread cross, a tool used by early Christians to mark ("stamp") bread before breaking it during the Eucharist or agape feasts. This simple yet meaningful ritual was an expression of faith and community.
The cross was made with precision and attention to detail from copper-plated brass, giving it a warm, antique patina. Characteristic marks from a fret saw cut are visible signs of the craftsman's hand-made, individual work, enhancing its authentic value.
The item was created in the 1980s in the famous workshop of Master Kiliński in Warsaw – a place known for producing unique amulets, historical replicas, and objects of a magical-symbolic nature. This workshop is highly regarded among collectors of Varsaviana and enthusiasts of esotericism.
This bread cross is not only an object of historical and religious value. It is also a distinctive amulet, a talisman referring to the original traditions of Christianity, a symbol of protection and blessing. Ideal for collectors of:
- objects of Christian and ancient themes,
- Warsaw Varsaviana related to Kiliński's workshop,
- amulets and symbols with deep history,
- artistic craftsmanship from the PRL period.
