This is a
very elaborate and intricate cross. It has rich gothic
ornamentation. In the center of the cross there is a simple but
effective portrait of Jesus. A beautiful and sober base completes
the design. The cross is fixed to the base by two discrete pieces of
wood, somehow making the impression that the cross floats in the
air. The sides of the cross are formed by two pieces of wood, both
of them fretworked. When the interior is linen with a contrasting
linen, the result is very striking. This cross requires many hours
of work but the result will be admired by everybody.

These
two
pictures have been kindly sent by Kizlyk Alexcey from the city of
Mirny, Sakha (Yakutia) Russia.
They show fantastic craftsmanship, attention to detail and a very
delicate satin finish with subtle use of colour that make this piece
a masterwork.
