A bracelet that shows your faith quietly: lava stone beads alternate with natural stone beads, with a tau cross at the centre. The tau cross is also called the Franciscan cross and is an ancient Christian sign, often associated with St Francis of Assisi.
The bracelet is stretchy and about 16 cm long, so it is easy to put on and sits comfortably. According to the manufacturer, the porous lava stone can absorb a few drops of fragrance oil or perfume. There are six colours, each with a different natural stone: purple (amethyst), red (carnelian), turquoise (howlite), brown (tiger's eye), green (jade) and marble (unakite). According to the manufacturer, each bracelet is made by hand in Italy.
It is a lovely gift for a christening, First Holy Communion, Confirmation, Protestant Confirmation, a wedding, for a godchild or for the birth of a child.
The bracelet is blessed. A Catholic priest blesses the incoming goods in the LUNEXUS warehouse, and a business-card-sized certificate showing the date of the blessing is enclosed.

The tau cross
The tau cross has the shape of the Greek letter tau and is regarded as one of the oldest Christian signs. It is also called the Franciscan cross because St Francis of Assisi used it as his signature and sign. On this bracelet it is the central motif and recalls blessing and closeness to the faith. You can wear it every day without it appearing showy, and choose it as a personal sign for yourself or as a gift for a christening, Communion or Confirmation.
Lava stone and natural stone beads
The bracelet is made of lava stone, a porous, earthy-looking natural stone, and, depending on the colour, of amethyst, carnelian, howlite, tiger's eye, jade or unakite. The beads are strung on a stretchy cord, and the tau cross is made of silver-coloured metal. According to the manufacturer, each bracelet is made by hand in Italy. Because natural stone is used, the colour and pattern of each bead differ a little. Before dispatch, a Catholic priest blesses the bracelet in the LUNEXUS warehouse, and a business-card-sized certificate showing the date of the blessing is enclosed.
