These 4 crucifixes came in for restoration. Typical deteriorating finish/splitting and a total of 9 missing fingers.
Took them apart, stripped/filled/refinished everything. But mainly wanted to show some fine carving. I’ve carved linden and it is just an amazing wood for holding detail. And interestingly after a cut, you don’t need to sand as the finish looks like it’s freshly waxed. I used my thumb for reference to scale.
