Floral Embossed Decorative Cross Ornament

This item is a decorative cross, crafted from what appears to be a stone-like material, possibly resin, concrete, or unglazed ceramic, giving it a porous and textured appearance. Its primary color is a muted, light beige or natural stone hue, with discernible darker areas in the recesses of the carvings, indicating some patination or intentional antiquing. The cross features an ornate design of embossed floral and botanical motifs covering its entire front surface. These designs include various flowering blossoms and intricate foliage, with a prominent cluster of roses or similar full-bodied flowers at the center, where the arms intersect. Smaller, distinct flowers and leaves adorn the vertical and horizontal arms, extending towards the ends. The edges of the cross are slightly curved and tapered, providing a sense of depth to the design. A loop of natural jute string is threaded through a hole at the top of the vertical arm, suggesting it is intended for hanging as an ornament or wall decor. The visible condition shows some surface dirt or dust, particularly in the textured areas, which contributes to its rustic aesthetic. There are no obvious signs of significant damage like chips or cracks, and the craftsmanship appears to be of a consistent quality, though it is likely mass-produced given the material and style. The style suggests a rustic, garden-inspired, or perhaps religious decorative piece from a contemporary period, likely post-1980s, designed to evoke a vintage or aged look. It serves as a symbolic accent for home or garden.
