Kinrossie Cross - Tayside, Scotland
Item Number: MH147
This cross is a replica from Tayside, Scotland. The center circle or boss has a variation of the spiral, which represents God with all things revolving around him. The knotwork covering the rest of the cross is unending and thus cannot be untied. This symbolizes the knots, which bind the soul to the earth. These knots must be cut and broken for the soul to become free to begin the spiritual journey to heaven. The knotwork is also said to represent everlasting life.
This Cross requires a 2 Week Lead time
