Description

Pair of Hand-Crafted Mexican Folk Art Crosses – St. Martin of Tours

These hand-crafted wooden wall crosses from Mexico beautifully capture the spirit of devotional folk art. Each is painted with rustic geometric patterns and warm colors, centered on a small image of Saint Martin of Tours. Known as the patron saint of the poor and soldiers, Martin is most often depicted sharing his cloak with a beggar—a powerful reminder of charity and compassion.

Crosses like these are traditionally hung in homes as a source of blessing and protection, serving both as spiritual objects and as expressions of cultural heritage. With their vibrant hand-painted decoration and heartfelt imagery, they make meaningful additions to a home altar, sacred space, or folk art collection.

Condition:
Good overall, rustic by design, with light wear that enhances their handmade character.

Dimensions:
13 x 8 x 0.75 inches each
(Please note: Campbell’s soup can shown for scale in photos.
