Crucifix: symbol of Christian faith and hope
The crucifix is one of the strongest symbols of Christianity. Representing Christ on the cross, it recalls both his sacrifice of love and his victory over death. Present in churches as well as in homes, it accompanies prayer, protects the believer, and invites keeping eyes fixed on the hope of the resurrection. Our collection of Christian crucifixes gathers varied models, for all styles and devotions.
