A very small and wonderfully detailed cross with religious symbols. All in natural wood, the scene includes a cross with a plaque where the INRI would be placed. A ladder with 8 rungs leans against the cross. There is a spear, sponge on a long rod, chalice, pliers, flail, roster, crown of thorns, skull and cross bones, and wooden nails making up the carved pieces included in this bottle.
