Description & details

The tau cross is the simplest form of cross: a T, without a point and without ornament. This olive wood necklace shows it as a small pendant of approx. 2.0 × 2.0 cm on a brown cord that matches the colour of the wood.

The name comes from the Greek letter tau. St Francis of Assisi loved this sign so much that it is still regarded as a Franciscan sign today. Whoever wears it recalls a way of life oriented towards simplicity and brotherhood.

  • Size: approx. 2.0 × 2.0 cm, approx. 15 g
  • Design: tau cross, plain, Franciscan-inspired
  • Wood: olive wood with individual grain
  • Cord: brown cord, approx. 80 cm, Ø 1.5 mm, with metal eyelet

A fitting gift for people with ties to the Franciscans, for those being baptised or preparing for Confirmation, for Protestant confirmands, or for anyone looking for a sign without many words.

Each of these necklaces is blessed in our warehouse by a Catholic priest, and the certificate gives the date. Delivered via Amazon's logistics network – free within Germany, €5.90 to Austria and France; Italy €6.90, Spain €6.90. 30-day returns.

Notes

- Care instructions: Please clean the olive wood only with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid direct contact with water, chemicals or cleaning agents to protect the wood and surface



- Natural material: As olive wood is a natural product, grain and shade differ on every piece – every cross is one of a kind



- Comfort of wear: The enclosed cord (approx. 80 cm, Ø 1.5 mm) is light, flexible and can be adjusted or knotted to suit you



- Note for children: Not suitable for children under 3 years – small parts that can be swallowed (metal eyelet, cord knot)



- Note on the symbol: The tau cross is a religious symbol with a Franciscan tradition and serves as a spiritual companion. It is not a toy
