18th Century Italian Cross Adorned with Native Copper with Crystals & Kyanite
About the Item
18th Century Italian cross adorned with native copper with crystals from White Pine Mine, Michigan and copper-plated kyanite on a crystal druzy in copper ore matrix base. The crucifix originally came from a church in Tuscany.
The White Pine Mine is world-famous for its superb groups of copper with its crystal formations. There are only four specimens known and they are all included on this crucifix. These are the same type of specimens found in the reference collection of the Seaman Mineral Museum.
The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she created the piece and the period shows that the Italian crucifix is originally 18th century.
The Italian crucifix is persevered and transformed into a new work of old and new with the precious minerals - interpreting the past to create a piece entirely original, evolving in its own right.
