The St. Francis handmade religious necklace features a bronze St. Francis two-sided pendant, jasper, horn and copper - meaningful jewelry for woman.
St. Francis, the patron saint of animals and the environment, is probably one of the most venerated religious figures. To honor the humble saint, the meaningful, one of a kind ST. FRANCIS necklace features an artisan cast, two-sided solid bronze St. Francis pendant. It was patterned after an antique Italian pendant for Old World charm, polished to a lovely warm glow. Raised against the background is the saint himself with a flock of doves, one resting peacefully on his outstretched hand. The back of the pendant has the Blessing of St. Francis in Italian. To complement the bronze pendant, brecciated jasper tubes and small horn discs were used. As you can see in the photos, the rich colors of the jasper range from a dark brick red to a very pale beige with interesting swirls, spots and blotches - each one unique. Between the first six groupings of three brecciated jasper tubes are amber colored bone discs, adding gorgeous color and beautiful texture. A meaningful jewelry gift for a woman of Catholic of faith and / or a woman who loves animals and is concerned about the environment, the ST. FRANCIS necklace was carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs.
The two-sided St. Francis pendant was hand cast from pure bronze based on an antique Italian pendant.
