    Here are a few of my crucifixes. I'm not sure what my obsession is w/ old Catholic symbols, because i'm pretty much a non-religious person. my family is very Catholic though and i have some good memories associated w/ the church. i just found the first one and it seems pretty old. it looks like it's survived a fire too.

    where's the religious category?

      Religious our not they are works of art. I really like the old headstones and religious paintings all the hell fire stuff. Bit of a goth I guess.

      i can relate to the goth bit! i was a big fan of bauhaus back in the early 80s. they are laden w/ deep emotion from centuries of prayer and beliefs...

      That is too true went through a thing like that in the 80s still my fav type of furniture is the big German pieces with gargoyle's and religious symbols.

      my favorites are definitely the 2nd and 3rd ones. the 3rd one is a really wonderful, deeply emotional and very artistic one. art nouveau and period or soon after - 1910 - 1930.
