DETAILS

Olive Wood Tau Cross

1” High - 24” Cotton Cord

Handmade olive wood Tau cross with corpus.  The cord has the three knots of a cincture.

The Tau is an ancient representation of the cross.  It is also the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet and is thought to be the sign with which Ezekiel marked those chosen by God (Ex 9:4). St. Francis loved the meaning of the Tau so much he signed his letters with this symbol.  When a Franciscan friar wears a habit and stands with his hands outstretched, he becomes a Tau, a living Tau.  The Tau is designated as the distinctive sign of the Franciscan Order.

Made in Assisi.

Natural wood tones vary.
