Saint Francis is a 15" tall wooden figure hand-made by artisans in the highlands of Guatemala. Perfect for living room decor and to gift for the holiday season. Made from pine wood, the carving is done by men, and both men and women contribute to the painting, a traditional craft provides supplementary income for the primarily subsistence farming families. This statue holds deep cultural significance, blending catholic beliefs with mayan traditions, and is commonly found in family shrines.
