This is a gold-and-brown cross resting on a white cloth. The cross has pointy, leaf-like shapes at the ends of each arm, and small faces are painted in the center of those shapes. The middle of the cross has a dark, narrow section with tiny painted details. The cross looks like it’s made of metal but is actually drawn on wood. The gold color stands out against the dark background of the cross’s center. Next, check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more objects like this.
