8.75" Millennium Crucifix

House of Fontanini – Item #50603

A reverent and timeless expression of faith, the 8.75" Millennium Crucifix beautifully reflects the artistry and devotional tradition for which Fontanini is known. The warm woodtone cross provides a classic foundation for the finely detailed polymer corpus of Christ, meticulously sculpted to capture both serenity and sacrifice.

Christ is depicted wearing the crown of thorns, with visible nail wounds and a gently flowing garment — a moving reminder of His love and redemption. Above Him rests the gold-accented INRI scroll, bearing the inscription Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum (“Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews”), honoring the sacred title placed at the Crucifixion.

Handcrafted and hand-painted in Italy, this crucifix offers heirloom-quality beauty suitable for home devotion, prayer spaces, or as a meaningful religious gift.

About the Fontanini Tradition

The Fontanini Nativity tradition lives on at HouseOfFontanini.com, continuing a legacy begun over a century ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy. Founded in 1908 by Emanuele Fontanini, the family business grew from humble beginnings into a world-renowned creator of heirloom-quality religious art. Each figure is carefully sculpted, molded, and hand-painted by skilled artisans using a multi-generational, family-guided process.

Today, HouseOfFontanini.com proudly carries this tradition forward through retail and e-commerce. For over 25 years, we’ve remained a locally owned small business devoted not only to offering Fontanini, but celebrating it.

From our Minnesota warehouse, our mission remains:
“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”
