Saint Christopher wood carved - color

St Christopher, the patron saint of travellers, is a fascinating figure revered in many cultures around the world. His story is shrouded in an aura of mystery and devotion, making him one of the most intriguing and beloved saints. Legend has it that Christopher was a giant of extraordinary strength, eager to serve the greatest of kings. His quest led him to Christ, the King of Kings, and he decided to serve him by helping people cross a dangerous river. One day, a child asked to be carried on his shoulders across the river. During the troubled crossing, the child became inexplicably heavy, so much so that he almost submerged the giant. At the end of the journey, the child revealed that he was Christ himself, and that he carried the weight of the entire world on his shoulders. From that moment on, Christopher became known as the Christ-bearer. Dolfi has been able to capture the essence and spirit of St Christopher through its sculptures, made of both coloured and natural wood. These works of art are available in various sizes, allowing everyone to find the representation that best suits their space and devotion. Each sculpture is a masterpiece of detail and expression, reflecting the power and kindness of St Christopher.

They are perfect for those who seek an element of spirituality in their daily life or for those who desire a protector in their travels. With a statue of St Christopher, you bring home or give as a gift a piece of sacred history, a reminder of the service and protection this saint offers to all of us world travellers.
