Description

Immerse yourself in the spirituality of Saint Francis of Assisi's welcoming gesture, masterfully captured in this exclusive Tau Cross. The icon is a masterpiece of sculpture, where the bearded figure of the Saint stands with open arms, in a universal gesture of peace and love. His serene expression is surrounded by six doves, symbols of purity and the Holy Spirit, delicately perched on the golden T-shaped frame, emphasizing the reference to the Franciscan cross.

The richness of detail is enhanced by hand-painting. The friar's habit, painted with shades that give depth and realism to the folds, harmoniously contrasts with the halo and the golden frame, whose metallic finish adds a touch of sacred royalty. Each piece is entirely carved and finished by hand by the master artisans of Val Gardena, respecting the Dolfi tradition.

This sculpture Tau Cross of Saint Francis is available in different precious woods for the smaller sizes (up to 30 cm): the sturdy Maple Wood for the Colored (C) and Natural (N) finishes, or the exclusive Italian Olive Wood (U), renowned for its unique grain patterns that make each piece unrepeatable. A tangible testament to sacred art that unites faith and high cabinet-making.

Story
Saint Francis of Assisi, an iconic figure of Christianity, was born in 1182. His life was a testament to humility, poverty, and love for every creature. After a comfortable youth, he converted radically, dedicating himself to the poor and the sick. He founded the Order of Friars Minor, based on the evangelical rule. He is venerated for his profound connection with nature, so much so that he is the patron saint of animals and ecology. His spirituality, centered on the imitation of Christ, has inspired millions of people. He died in 1226, leaving a legacy of peace and fraternity that still resonates powerfully today.
