Seller's description

Specifications

May include: A wall-mounted wooden crucifix featuring a medium-brown finish with scalloped edges. A gold-toned metal figure of Jesus is centered on the cross, with a small gold-toned plaque bearing the letters INRI positioned above the figure's head.

This vintage Catholic Sick Call Crucifix is a beautiful and meaningful piece of religious history. Crafted from wood with a metal corpus of Christ, this traditional crucifix was designed for use during priest home visits, often for administering the Sacrament of the Sick and Last Rites. When opened, the cross transforms into a small altar, making it both a devotional item and an important piece of Catholic heritage.
The hollow wooden construction includes storage compartments traditionally used to hold blessed candles and a small bottle of holy water for religious ceremonies. This example does not include candles or holy water but retains its historic functionality and display appeal.
The warm wood tones, detailed metal corpus, and traditional INRI plaque create a striking presentation whether displayed on a wall, incorporated into a religious collection, or used as a devotional piece.
Measures approximately 12 1/4 inches long by 7 1/2 inches wide when closed. When opened as an altar, it stands approximately 11 inches tall.
Please review all photos carefully for condition details and signs of age consistent with vintage religious items.
A wonderful collectible for Catholic memorabilia collectors, religious décor enthusiasts, church history collectors, and those seeking a meaningful devotional display piece.

Welcome to my collection of vintage and antique treasures, each with its own unique charm and character. These pre-loved pieces may show gentle wear consistent with age, adding to their authenticity. Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the description.
Feel free to message me with any questions or to request additional photos before purchasing. All sales are final, and items are sold “As Found” and “As Is.”
