The cross of St. Francis — in a larger size. The Tau — the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, shaped like a T — was adopted by St. Francis of Assisi as his personal symbol of humility, penance, and peace. He signed his letters with it, painted it on the walls of hermitages, and saw in it a sign of the Cross of Christ. This larger Tau Cross pendant is hand-polished by expert New England silversmiths in solid .925 sterling silver, honoring St. Francis as patron saint of animals, ecology, peace, and merchants. At 26mm x 21mm with a 24" chain, it makes a bold and beautiful statement of Franciscan devotion.
