A really special item, the exact same pectoral cross worn by Pope Francis.

On March 19, 2013, Pope Francis, the first Pope from the Americas, stepped out onto the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica and into the hearts of 1.2 billion around the world.
He chose a silver cross, realized by an Italian artist: Antonio Vedele. It was the same cross he used to have as a bishop.
This cross is the symbol of the new church, a poorer church. Poor amongst poors.

This specific Pope Francis Prayer Cross is a highly detailed re-creation of Pope Francis' own pectoral cross. The cross depicts Jesus as the Good Shepherd, carrying the lost sheep on his shoulders and protecting the rest of the flock from harm. On top of everything there is a representation of the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove. This beloved portrait conveys a powerful message that we all must minister to the weak among us and bring them back to the fold.

This is a LARGE sized cross, it is also available in smaller and medium size. This is the "actual" size of the cross of Pope Francis and it is an exact replica of it.


Coming directly to you from Rome: originally blessed by Pope Francis, it is now also blessed by Pope Leo XIV himself during public audience in St Peter’s Square. * these are the last ones available


We ship from Italy

We are located in Rome, ITALY.

We ship directly from Italy. This means all U.S. orders are subject to import tariffs and customs fees as required by U.S. law.

US Tariffs

Due to U.S. import regulations, packages shipped with UPS-only service are subject to 15% tariffs plus UPS brokerage fees upon delivery. To help our customers avoid multiple fees, our standard option (UPS + USPS) consolidates shipments, keeping your shipping cost fixed while still delivering safely to your door.

Shipping Time

When you choose UPS+Local, your order is shipped with UPS to the United States and then handed over to USPS for the final delivery. This process typically takes 10–15 business days in total. This method helps avoid multiple brokerage fees and keeps shipping costs lower, though it is slower than UPS-only service.
