Description & details

On this tau cross the centre is cut away: only the outline of the T remains as wood, and your collar or skin shows through between. It is the most delicate variant of our tau necklaces.

The tau was the favourite sign of St Francis of Assisi; it is named after the Greek letter tau and is still a Franciscan sign today. Openwork makes the symbol look lighter and more restrained, and it can be worn well under an open shirt.

  • Dimensions: approx. 1.7 × 1.5 cm
  • Weight: approx. 9 g
  • Design: open tau cross, a plain Franciscan symbol
  • Cord: black cord, approx. 80 cm, Ø 1.5 mm

The cord is flexible and can be shortened. For young people who want an unobtrusive necklace for Confirmation, the piece is a good gift; so too for anyone who looks to St Francis in everyday life.

A Catholic priest blesses this necklace in our own warehouse. The enclosed certificate records the date. Amazon’s logistics network handles delivery. Delivery costs nothing in Germany and €7.90 to all other delivery countries. You can return the necklace up to 30 days after receipt.
