Elegant vintage standing crucifix, made in Germany, measuring 9?? tall x 3¾? Wide x 2¼? Deep. This piece features a black-finished wooden cross and stepped plinth base, mounted with a finely cast silver-tone Corpus of Christ and an “INRI” plaque above. The base bears a radiant sunburst medallion -a symbolic nod to divine light and resurrection. The back is stamped “Made in Germany, ” indicating postwar production, most likely 1950s-1960s, when German religious artisans were renowned for their precise metal casting and devotional craftsmanship. A beautiful, compact size suited for a home altar, bedside devotion, or small chapel display. The contrast between the dark wood and bright metal figure gives it a solemn, dignified presence. Height: 9?? Width: 3¾? Depth: 2¼? “Made in Germany” stamp on reverse. Light age wear and mild surface marks to the wood finish. Metal Christ figure shows gentle patina consistent with age. Sturdy and displays beautifully. After World War II, German religious workshops in regions such as Bavaria and the Black Forest resumed producing devotional art for export, combining traditional handcraft with modern precision. These standing crucifixes were often gifted for First Communion, confirmation, or used in priests’ travel kits and home altars-symbols of resilience and faith in a rebuilding Europe. Picture it in a modest parlor or chapel around 1955: sunlight catching on the silver figure, a quiet testament to endurance and grace amid changing times.
