Vintage Ethiopian Silver Cross on Lucite Stand – Handmade African Processional Art

This large vintage Ethiopian processional cross is a striking fusion of faith, culture, and craftsmanship. Handmade in Ethiopia from silver alloy, it reflects the spiritual artistry of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church—one of the world’s oldest Christian traditions. These ceremonial crosses were historically carried by priests during religious processions, raised high on wooden staffs as sacred emblems of protection and devotion. The intricate, pierced lattice design symbolizes unity, eternity, and divine connection. One of a kind.

Sizing (Inches): 18W x 6D x 25H

Mounted on a modern lucite base, this piece blends heritage and contemporary design. The contrast between the aged, hand-forged silver and the sleek, clear base allows the ornate detail to shine from every angle. Whether placed on a mantel, console, or bookshelf, it makes a powerful statement and invites reflection. No two crosses are alike—each carries the marks of time, tradition, and artisan skill. A rare and meaningful collectible for lovers of African heritage and spiritual art.
