A lot of 6 bronze crosses 15th-18th c. A fine lot of six bronze cross pendants of varying sizes and designs, each featuring an integral suspension loop. The collection includes crosses with broad rectangular arms, flaring terminals, and more elaborate examples with stepped and pointed ends.

An appealing collection of historical Christian bronze pendants, ideal for collectors of religious antiquities, post-medieval devotional jewellery, or archaeological metalwork. 4.9 cm largest Belgian collection, acquired in 1980s.
