Assisi souvenirs: Tau crosses, rosaries and Franciscan keepsakes for shops and groups
Shops and pilgrimage organisers who serve Assisi (St Francis) in Assisi can order devotional goods and souvenirs made for this place instead of generic catalogue stock. We draw the motifs from the shrine itself — its architecture, its name and the images pilgrims know — and produce them in small runs.
About Assisi (St Francis)
Assisi, in Umbria, is the town of St Francis and St Clare. The Basilica of St Francis, frescoed by Giotto and his circle, and the Franciscan sites around it are a UNESCO World Heritage site, and Franciscan families, schools and peace groups visit from all over the world.
The Tau cross, the San Damiano crucifix and the Canticle of the Creatures are the motifs pilgrims know; wooden Tau pendants are among the best-selling small items, and Franciscan parishes worldwide order them in volume.
What pilgrims take home from Assisi (St Francis)
Motifs we work into the designs:
- the Tau
- the San Damiano crucifix
- the Basilica of St Francis

- doves and olive branches
