The Cross, a symbol of the glory of Jesus Christ, is immortalized in this processional cross from Kerala. The cross resembles the one present at the Malankara Syrian Church of Kerala. This cross made of brass is placed on a staff that allows it to be carried during ritualistic processions. The cross is decorated with flower patterns, a common occurrence, and testament to the Indian and Syrian cultural amalgamation in Kerala. During the ceremonies, these crosses are held high by the priests, and chanting in the name of Jesus continues. These are not regular crosses; instead, they are simple crosses without depicting Christ on the crucifixion. The simple cross signifies Christ's life triumphing over death in Eastern and Syrian Christianity. Eastern Christianity uses symbols.

A Beacon of Faith: The Processional Brass Cross

Elevate your sacred ceremonies and processions with this exquisite brass cross, a testament to enduring faith and artisanal craftsmanship. Forged from lustrous brass, this significant artifact is designed to be carried aloft, its gleam catching the light and drawing the gaze of the faithful. The cross, a universally recognized symbol of Christianity, represents sacrifice, redemption, and the ultimate act of love. It has been a central icon throughout the history of the faith, appearing in countless artistic interpretations and devotional practices. The design of this particular cross is rich with detail. The terminals of each arm are elegantly shaped, reminiscent of quatrefoils, suggesting a connection to Gothic or Romanesque architectural motifs often found in ecclesiastical settings. Each lobe of the quatrefoil contains a stylized floral element, hinting at the bloom of life and the beauty of creation. Intricate hand-chasing adorns the surface, creating a texture that is both visually captivating and tactilely pleasing. These patterns are not merely decorative; they imbue the cross with a sense of sacred geometry and spiritual depth, inviting contemplation.

A Symbol Carried Through Time

Throughout history, the cross has been carried in processions by clergy and laity alike, serving as a visual proclamation of faith. In the early Church, processions were vital for spreading the Gospel and solidifying community identity. The cross, often borne at the head of such gatherings, acted as a banner of Christ's victory over sin and death. Imagine this very cross leading a solemn procession through ancient streets, its brass surface reflecting the torchlight, or perhaps glinting under the sun as it moves through a modern-day congregation. It connects the present moment to a continuous stream of devotion that spans centuries, echoing the journeys of countless believers before us. The material itself, brass, has long been associated with nobility and divine light in various cultures. Its warm, golden hue can evoke the radiance of heavenly beings and sacred artifacts. This choice of metal underscores the reverential purpose of the cross. It is not merely an object but a vessel for spiritual energy and a focal point for communal prayer and reflection. This processional cross is more than a ritualistic item; it is a tangible piece of heritage, an heirloom that carries stories and aspirations, ready to lead and inspire in moments of profound significance.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?

Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.

In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth.

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
