Saint Francis Peace Chaplet, Jade Prayer Beads with Tau Cross
A peace chaplet built around the story of Saint Francis of Assisi — his Tau cross, his kinship with creation and his enduring call to become an instrument of peace.
The Franciscan imagery runs throughout this piece. An antiqued brass Saint Francis peace link sits at its heart, leading through a single jade bead to a substantial Tau cross. Rich green jade beads complete the chaplet, each with its own natural patterning and variation.
With a circumference of approximately 40 cm, this is a compact but substantial chaplet designed to be held in the hands during prayer and reflection. It is a handheld rosary rather than a necklace.
Each chaplet is individually handmade in Scotland.

Reviews
❤️ A True Spiritual Treasure. This beautiful St. Francis chaplet is so much more than a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. You can feel the love, thought, & spiritual meaning that went into creating it. I love the unique St. Francis design and the beautiful bees incorporated into the 2 medals Fiach designed himself. Knowing that he is a beekeeper makes that detail more special. Fiach is incredibly talented, but what stands out just as much is the heart behind his work. These pieces don't feel mass-produced or simply made to be beautiful. They feel thoughtfully designed, personal, and made with genuine faith.
Thank you, Fiach, for creating something so uniquely beautiful and meaningful. It is much more than a chaplet to me — it is something I will always cherish & pass down as a family heirloom. ❤️🐝🌿
