6 1/2 in. Walnut stained wood with pewter corpus and Benedict medal and INRI.

The main body of the crucifix is made of walnut-stained wood. Walnut stain is known for its rich, dark color, often used to enhance the appearance of wooden objects. A St. Benedict crucifix typically features the image of Christ on the cross, along with the medal of St. Benedict incorporated into the design. The St. Benedict medal is a highly recognizable Catholic symbol known for its protective properties against evil and spiritual dangers. The crucifix also includes the INRI inscription, which stands for "Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum" (Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews). This inscription is traditionally placed on crucifixes to signify the charge written by Pontius Pilate and placed on the cross of Jesus Christ according to the New Testament.
