Description

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.

Please note:
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.

Each color sold separately.

St, Francis

I like him and hopefully will get his companion piece. I did need help affixing the birds. It turned out fine

Beautiful and meaningful wood carving.

I gave this beautiful wood carving to my niece, and she was delighted. I have one in my home, and she had commented on it when she saw it. She was very happy when she opened her package and saw that she also had one of her own!
