Long revered as the patron saint of animals and nature, St. Francis of Assisi is also the patron saint of ecology. Our wish is for people of any faith or tradition to find inspiration and hope in St. Francis’s model of careful stewardship and respect for the natural world.

This rustic wooden santos depicts St. Francis in a robe adorned with flowers, accompanied by a spotted cat and birds that have perched to hear his preaching. Carved using only hand tools in multigenerational Mayan Quiche workshop in Chichicastenango, Guatemala.

St. Francis’s arm arrives detached for shipping. Just gently push it back together and adjust as you like. Colors may vary slightly with this handcrafted work of folk art. Coral color features St. Francis's hand stretched out to the side; Yellow color has his hand stretched out front.

Two Saint Francis Statues

I bought St Francis in a coral colored robe a few months ago and just loved it. When the statues went on sale, I bought two more: the yellow robed figure for myself and another coral for a friend. They were packed well, wrapped beautifully, and arrived quickly. Good experience all around.
