Byzantine Bronze Reliquary Cross (Enkolpion) with Orthodox Iconography – 9th to 12th Century AD A Byzantine bronze reliquary cross, or enkolpion, decorated with raised Orthodox Christian imagery arranged across the arms and central axis of the cross. The front presents a series of sacred figures in relief, including a central standing figure and several busts of saints or holy personages within rounded compartments, while the reverse is comparatively plain. Such reliquary crosses were worn or carried as devotional objects and could contain small relics or other sacred material. The surface retains an aged dark patina and visible wear consistent with prolonged use and antiquity. Material: Bronze Dimensions: 7.3 cm Weight: 20.89 gr Provenance: Acquired in Germany at an Auction House. We guarantee the authenticity of the pieces, backed by the combined experience of our experts spanning more than 40 years. A Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) will be sent digitally by email.
