The Reliquary Cross is a small (29.8 × 12.5 cm) French metalwork sculpture dated c. 1180, now in The Cloisters museum in New York. The reliquary cross is double armed, and made from silver gilt, crystal, beading and twisted wire, with embossed rosettes and a wood core. It contains six sequences of engravings; on either side of the shaft and on the four sides of the lower arms. These were intended to identify the relics contained within.

The cross originates from Limoges, France, possibly from the Grandmont Abbey. It was in the Paris collection of one Félix Doistau from 1846–1936. It was acquired by the Cloisters in 2002. (en)
