The soldiers wove a crown of thorns and placed it on his head.

- Gospel according to John 

You have to see this crown once in your lifetime! It now shines on a canopy of radiant blue and golden glass. You have to feel the silence around it, time stopping despite the crowd wandering and beginning their turn at the cathedral’s altar. The urge comes to kneel in deferent, still homage. The desire comes to embrace the wood that touched the head of the sacrificed Love. And, perhaps, tears from the deepest part of your heart will flow down your cheeks. This crown says we are loved. Beyond all measure.

I was delighted to write an article in MAGNIFICAT before the Holy Crown returned to Notre-Dame de Paris and the new reliquary, if you are interested, it is here. 

Handcrafted jewel, four-lobed cross of fine shimmering lapis lazuli mica, golden crown, setting in 3-micron gold plating, worn here on the short blue Saint Sabine chain. Creation conceived for Notre Dame de Paris.
