A larger San Damiano cross in lightweight metal, crisply cast with the Christ of the Assisi icon and sized to stand out on a rosary, a rearview mirror, or a neck chain. The reverse is stamped ASSISI and carries the Latin blessing beginning Benedicat tibi Dominus — may the Lord bless you and keep you.
Size: 2 1/2" (6.2 cm)
Material: Lightweight metal, silver-tone finish
Design: Two-sided — icon front, Latin blessing on the reverse
Condition: New
Blessing: Blessed by Pope Leo XIV during a public audience in St. Peter's Square
