the wonders of Jesus and the promises that He made.
What better serves to remind us of His sacrifice than the
Crown of Thorns that He wore upon His head? As the Roman Legionaries mocked Christ at His crucifixion, they placed a crown upon His head, hailing Him as King of the Jews. The crown was not a golden one, encrusted with jewels, which would have been befitting of a king. Instead it was formed from a thick-stemmed and thorny plant which grew in the desert of Jericho by the Dead Sea, just thirty miles from Jerusalem. This crown was encrusted with something far more precious than jewels it was encrusted with the blood of Jesus, the very blood that He shed to redeem His people. The Euphorbia Milli, or Crown of Thorns, has been known to this region for many years as a beautiful ornamental plant, despite its dense thorns.
Display this authentic Crown of Thorns as a symbolic reminder of the suffering that Christ endured. Whether as a centerpiece,
wall décor or placed on top of an olive wood cross,

Wonderful Kitchen AccessoryMar 30, 2010
When I first saw this item advertised here under "Kitchen and Houseware," I was slightly skeptical. How, I wondered, was I to at all benefit from a Crown of Thorns in my kitchen? Well, color me surprised! The first time that I used this, it was a Good Friday at my house, indeed!
Whoever decided to advertise this to cooks really knew how to accessorize! When I work in the kitchen nowadays, I am never found without my new Crown of Thorns cooking hat! I even splurged on some new cookware; my "Crucify the Cook" apron is always a welcome sight at gatherings, and I can always get a laugh when my chronic dry skin acts up. Stigmata tartar, anyone?
Seller honored shipping requestMar 16, 2010
There was a misunderstanding in the original shipping costs,but after a few emails, the seller reimbursed me for some of the shipping fees. Buyers, beware of the "expedited shipping" button - apparently I chose that method inadvertently. The crown of thorns is perfect and all in all, I rate the item and the seller 5 Stars.
Crown of Thorns for Cross in ChurchOct 06, 2009
We purchased the Crown of Thorns for our Church to adorn a cross with a purple robe already on it. The Crown added the perfect touch. It came nicely packaged, not broken in any way. Thanks Amazon, we have always been very pleased with everything we have ordered!

Simple and beautifulMar 03, 2008
I purchased this product both as a devotional item to use at home for the season of Lent and to use with my 4th grade religious education class as a teaching tool and classroom decoration for the season.
The product arrived very quickly and in good condition. It was wrapped in an attractive purple cloth, which I use for the classroom display as well. It also had a certificate with a description of the product.
The class was very taken by the crown of thorns, and I enjoy looking at it as I pray at home. Note that it is VERY fragile and the thorns are sharp, so don't buy this for use in a Passion Play!
