Eastern Orthodox Cross with Crucifixion & Pokrov Relief

Description

Construction of this Eastern Orthodox cross pendant involves two primary components: a flared cross base with detailed iconography and a separate high-relief model of the Corpus Christi. The obverse features the Crucifixion scene with incised Church Slavonic inscriptions, while the reverse depicts the Theotokos Pokrov (Protection of the Mother of God) below an eight-pointed star. This CAD asset, prepared with recessed fields for lettering and intricate border patterns, provides a detailed master pattern for 3D printing and a subsequent lost-wax casting workflow, accurately capturing the layered relief structure which measures 45.94 mm in total height.
