“Modern” Maranatha Lab Astile Cross (Art. 498)
Maranatha Lab’s “Modern” astile cross is a liturgical furniture made of two-tone brass casting.
The astile cross, also called a processional cross,is a cross similar to the one to be altared but instead of having a base, it is usually fixed to an or painted rod and is about two meters high. It is used in processions both outside, along the streets of the cities, and inside the church, for example at the beginning of Mass when the priest enters the church and finally when he leaves.
As soon as the procession reaches the presbytery,the astile cross is placed on a base next to the altar so that it is the altar cross, or otherwise (if the altar cross is already there) it is put aside.
This liturgical furniture is made of two-tone brass, using the blending method, and is designed in a modern style.
The cross is stylized and all perforated in gold finish, while the Crucified Christ is in silver finish.
The plastic processing to detect gives it materiality and modernity. The two-tone finish makes it suitable for adorning canteens in both classic and modern liturgical contexts.
