Bring a piece of French history into your home with this striking 19th-century architectural salvage fragment. Sourced directly from France, this authentic cemetery cross topper is crafted from heavy, solid poured cast iron. It features an incredibly detailed, symmetrical relief of two praying angels (cherubs) kneeling in adoration beneath a stylized Gothic rosette finial.

Over a century of exposure to the elements in a French churchyard has given this piece an irreplaceable, rich rust patina. The original protective paint has weathered away beautifully, creating a deeply textured, crusty surface that highlights every line of the original craftsmanship.

This substantial, heavy artifact is a dream piece for collectors of religious antiquities, gothic decor, or classical garden accents. It makes a stunning statement as an indoor wall hanging, a rustic shelf accent, or a centerpiece in a European-inspired garden. Excellent antique structural condition. Features heavy, authentic surface rust and weathering consistent with age and outdoor exposure. It measures 16" x 7" x 1".
