Description & details

A sword pierces the book in the bishop’s hand: this wooden statue shows St Winfried Boniface, carved in Val Gardena. It is intended for Catholics in Fulda and Thuringia, for people with the name Winfried or Boniface and for friends of German Church history.

Winfried is Boniface’s baptismal name. He was an Anglo-Saxon missionary, organised the Frankish Church and was killed by robbers in Frisia in 754/755. According to tradition he held a book protectively over his head, and a sword blow pierced it. His feast day is generally observed on 5 June. He is patron saint of, among others, England, Thuringia, the dioceses of Fulda and Erfurt, and of brewers and tailors.

  • Material: wood from the Gardena Valley – mainly lime wood, depending on size also maple or Swiss stone pine
  • Sizes: 12, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80 and 100 cm
  • Surfaces: Hand-painted (painted with oil paints, details in gold leaf and silver leaf, fixed with lacquer), multicolour stained: stain in three tones, waxed, with gold or silver accents on details and hems depending on the motif, natural – untreated and finely sanded

Boniface Day in early June is a good occasion for a Winfried or Boniface; likewise a Confirmation or a priestly jubilee in a parish with him as its patron. Anyone who has stopped off in Fulda takes home a souvenir with this statue.

Every Boniface is carved by hand and is one of a kind. You have to reckon with a delivery time of approx. 4–5 weeks. Shipping is insured via UPS from our warehouse in Flieden, to all delivery countries, and costs €6.90. Every piece is blessed by a Catholic priest in our warehouse in Flieden and comes with a certificate card showing the date of the blessing.
