Drawing of altar cross, plate 86 of Modern English Silverwork, by C. R. Ashbee

Summary edit

Description
English: Caption from page 31 of Modern English Silverwork, by C. R. Ashbee: "Altar cross, designed and made for Miss Sophia Lonsdale as a gift to Lichfield Cathedral. The base of this piece was made to harmonise with the bases of the Cathedral candlesticks. The cross itself is designed with an elaborate nimbus, richly chased, partly enamelled and set with moonstones and pearl blisters. Ten chased angels, with enamelled wings, surround the nimbus, and a small cast figure of St. Chad occupies a niche in the head. A large azurite is set in the vesica which occupies the centre, from which gilded rays diverge to the nimbus. The St. Chad was modelled by Alec Miller. The cross stands 47 inches high and is here drawn to two-thirds of its full size."
