Heritage Restoration and Design Studio was contracted to manufacture a custom outdoor crucifix for a local church. The cross beams were composed of rough cedar boards, which were cut to the appropriate size using an old world carving technique known as dadoing.
After the beams were fitted together, the cross was treated and finished to withstand the outdoor environment. A fifty inch resin corpus was given seven layers of Heritage’s outdoor statuary copper coating.
Once the components completed their drying time, the cross and corpus were shipped to the client’s church. A special thanks to Wilson Lawn Service, who dug the hole at the installation site, and provided landscaping to the surrounding area. The cross was inserted into the hole and cemented in place.
The corpus was attached to the cross along with a custom carved INRI sign that contained the traditional biblical inscription in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
The crucifix was now fully installed. It stands outside its church to remind viewers of the sanctity of the site for years to come.
