Trial Cross (Wall) | Handcrafted Modern Christian Wall Cross

The Trial Cross began as a gift, not a product.

Long before White Cross became a brand, Korean artist Kim Dong Kyu handcrafted a cross to share the Gospel with friends—something they could keep long after the conversation had ended. That first design became the Trial Cross, the piece that later inspired the founding of White Cross.

Today, the Trial Cross (Wall) carries that same purpose. More than a modern Christian wall cross, it is a quiet reminder to keep Christ at the center of the home—a place where faith is lived, shared, and passed from one generation to the next.

A Cross Designed with Meaning

The Trial Cross is unlike any other cross.

Its distinctive faceted form is more than an artistic expression. Christ and the cross are sculpted as one continuous form, symbolizing His willing acceptance of the cross and His sacrifice for our salvation.

Hung upon a wall, the Trial Cross naturally draws the eye upward, gently redirecting the heart toward what is eternal. As daylight changes throughout the day, each handcrafted facet catches the light differently, reflecting the enduring hope, perseverance, and steadfast love found in Christ.

Minimal in appearance yet rich in meaning, it is designed not simply to decorate a home, but to quietly bear witness to the One at its center.

Handcrafted in Korea

Every Trial Cross (Wall) is individually handcrafted in Korea by artist Kim Dong Kyu using reinforced plaster. Each piece is carefully cast and hand-finished, preserving the subtle texture and quiet luminosity that give the sculpture its distinctive presence.

For more than sixteen years, the Trial Cross has remained the defining work of White Cross—recognized for its timeless simplicity, thoughtful craftsmanship, and unwavering message of faith.

As Kim Dong Kyu describes his studio:

"It is a shared workspace between God and me."

That spirit of devotion continues in every piece created today.

Designed for a Home Shaped by Faith

Whether displayed above a mantel, in a living room, bedroom, home office, hallway, or dedicated prayer space, the Trial Cross brings a quiet sense of peace without overwhelming the room.

Rather than becoming another decorative object, it serves as a daily invitation to pause, pray, and remember Christ's enduring presence in every season of life.

Beautiful on its own, it becomes even more meaningful when paired with the Trial Cross (Table) as part of the White Cross Trial Collection—one accompanying the rhythms of everyday life, the other quietly anchoring the home in faith.
