Carved Cross Wall Art for a Quiet Prayer Corner

Rays break outward from the cross in every direction, cut as fine parallel grooves that widen into broad rolling folds toward the edges. Down in the lower right corner the lines coil into a small vortex, the kind of detail you find on the second or third viewing. The cross is recessed into the wood rather than raised off it, which gives it depth without any hardware or applied ornament.

Solid wood blocks are joined and then carved, and the burnt umber and caramel bands you see running through the piece are the timber's own figure brought up by the finish. The perimeter is left with a natural rippled edge, so no two pieces end at exactly the same line. Nothing about the surface is printed, laminated, or pressed.

Work begins on your piece once the order is placed, at the size you select. It travels in parts to protect the carved face and to keep shipping reasonable, and assembly is short and clearly documented, with all fixings in the box. Anyone who prefers a hand can reach our support team and get walked through it.
