A very nice antique French (bronze?) pectoral cross crucifix from France.  Approx 6 1/2 " x 4 ".   
In ancient and medieval times pectoral crosses were worn by both clergy and laity, but by the end of the Middle Ages the pectoral cross came to be a special indicator of position worn by bishops. In the Catholic Church, the wearing of a pectoral cross remains restricted to popes, cardinals, bishops and abbots.
