This beautifully detailed Pardon Crucifix pendant is crafted with olivewood from the Holy Land and measures approximately 3 3/4" tall. Made in Italy, it combines traditional Catholic craftsmanship with the rich spiritual heritage of one of the Church's most beloved sacramentals.
The Pardon Crucifix was approved by Pope St. Pius X in 1905 and has long been associated with God's mercy, forgiveness, and the grace of conversion. It remains a cherished devotional item and a powerful reminder of Christ's sacrificial love.
The front of the crucifix bears the inscription "Iesvs Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm" (I.N.R.I.), the Latin phrase meaning "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews."
The reverse features an image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus along with the inscriptions "Father, forgive them" and "Behold this Heart which has so loved men," reflecting Christ's boundless mercy and love for humanity.
