BRASS RUBBING CELTIC CANTERBURY CROSS 9TH C. HOME DECOR

This is a hand made rubbing of The Canterbury Cross created with metallic gold & red wax crayons on a special black rag paper.The original, probably made in the 9th Century AD, was found in St. Georges Street, Canterbury and is a gilt criciform brooch with triangular silver panels, incised with a 'triquetra' pattern. The engraving is 6 1/2 inches in diameter on paper 10" X 10" to allow for matting and framing.

The engraving from which this rubbing was taken is from an exhibition featured at The Washington National Cathedral by The London Brass Rubbing Centre and has more recently been on a National tour as part of their brass rubbing workshop. Rubbings like this one, hand made by one of their craft instructors, make unusual and interesting gifts. I will send it to you rolled in a strong mailing tube. It can be hung either from wooden dowels or matted and framed under glass. Shipping and handling charges include insurance cover during transit. I would be pleased to offer a combined shipping price if you decide to order more than one rubbing from our collection if they can be rolled in the same mailing tube. I have lots of other lovely rubbings on display, for you to choose from, in my eBay Store,
