Lot 137: Antique Wrought Iron Crown of Thorns
Description
A circular "crown of thorns" form hand-fashioned from twisted wrought iron wire, with sharp barb-like points spaced evenly around the ring, echoing the traditional Christian iconography of the crown of thorns. The piece has a deep, even rust patina throughout, giving it strong rustic, primitive appeal, well suited for religious or folk art display, as wall decor, or as an accent piece for a rustic or Western-style interior.
Condition Report:
The iron shows heavy, even rust and oxidation throughout, consistent with age and likely outdoor or long-term storage exposure, a desirable patina for this type of piece. The join at the ends appears intact but hand-formed rather than professionally finished; please examine closely to assess strength if you intend to hang or handle the piece. Photos are part of the condition report, please review all photos carefully. We do our best to examine each item closely, but small flaws or imperfections may be missed, especially in areas not fully visible in photos.
