This is a custom order from a customer that wanted a crucifix.
He asked me for this "could the top 2 or 3 layers extend towards the points as representing the arms & legs? They don't physically need to resemble a body's limbs, but more to give a clue as to it's overall cognitive content" and I went with a "Cristo Redentor" theme and this is what I came up with.

Thankfully he liked it! :D

Mokume from 1010, 1070 and copper.
1.77" (45 mm) long, 1.41" (36 mm) wide and 0.40" (10 mm) thick. It weights 1.52 oz (43 gr)
