{"product_id":"first-communion-freestanding-mantel-cross-plaque-white","title":"First Communion Freestanding Mantel Cross Plaque - White","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis white cross plaque marks a first communion with the words FIRST COMMUNION printed across its arms in gold-tone capitals. Above the lettering sits a gold chalice crowned with fine sunburst rays, and a sprig of soft green leaves sits on either side of the words. Small gold stars and sparkles run down the upright, with two pale grey hearts drifting above a little church at the foot, drawn with a dusky pink spire, a warm arched door and tiny flowers at its base. The matt white ground keeps the whole design calm and gentle. Its face measures 9cm by 8.4cm and it is 2.4cm deep, so it is a small piece with a pleasingly chunky profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cross stands upright on its own flat base, so it needs no wall, nail or hook. Set it on a mantelpiece, a bedroom shelf, a bedside table or a windowsill, where the words can be read at a glance. It makes a thoughtful first communion gift to give on the day itself or at the celebration afterwards. It then stays on as a keepsake long after the day has passed, a quiet reminder of a milestone that matters to the whole family. Because it is so compact, it sits happily among cards and framed pictures from the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe edges are left plain white, so the cross looks neat from the side as well as straight on. The matt finish keeps reflections down, so the lettering reads clearly under a lamp or by a window. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp so the print stays crisp. For gifting, tuck it in with a card for the day, or give it alongside a favourite picture to begin a small corner of memories on a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 x 8.4cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.4cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.088kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOccasion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommunion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is the first communion cross plaque?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts face measures 9cm by 8.4cm and it is 2.4cm deep, a compact size that suits a mantelpiece, shelf or bedside table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the cross stand up on its own?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, it stands upright on its own flat base, so it needs no hook or nail.
