A processional cross is used in the Roman Catholic liturgy mainly for the ceremonial entry
of a festive mass. Also they are used for processions and pilgrimages. The tradition of
leading a procession by carrying a cross mounted on a long pole originates from the early
Middle Ages. After the entry in the church, the crosses are often used also as alter
crosses and are visibly displayed close to the alter.

- Heavily damaged condition. - Elements missing on both the front and the back. - The ball on which the cross stands is dented several times. - Furthermore, heavy superficial soiling, rubbing and bumps.
