Product Description

Finder of Lost Things

Anthony of Padua (1195-1231), a disciple and friend of St. Francis of Assisi, became known as the finder of lost things because of a simple story from his life: a Franciscan novice took Anthony's Psalter without permission. Anthony prayed for its return. The novice had a frightening apparition and rushed to return the book. Many people view Anthony as the finder not only of lost articles but also of lost intangibles: he is invoked to return lost health, lost happiness, lost peace.... In this plaque, Anthony in one hand holds his Psalter; in the other he holds a medieval key: medieval keys, like their modern brethren, were often lost.
This custom made figure can hung, or placed to stand and are suited to be placed outside. Also comes boxed with history card of the saint.

5.25 x 2 x 1 inches

Beautiful statue of St Anthony 4.00 out of 5

By: Nini (New London, CT, May 22, 2011) Verified Buyer
Pros: Nicely carved;
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I gave this to my grandson, Anthony, on the occasion of his first communion. I think it would make a beautiful and meaningful gift for a boy or girl named for this saint, for communion, confirmation or even a baptism.

The unique St. Anthony statue 5.00 out of 5

By: Binka (Little Rock, AR, October 22, 2010) Verified Buyer
Pros: Unique in design; Perfect size to fit anywh; Reasonably Priced; Beautifully Made;
Best Uses: Behind a lit candle;
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I put a lit candle in front of the statue and it has a nice ambiance and reverence when that happens. My husband keeps losing things, so that's why I bought the statue and the size is just right to fit anywhere I want to put it.[...]

The Traditional St. Anthony of Padua 4.00 out of 5

By: Padre (Johnstown, PA, May 13, 2010)
Pros: Beautiful craftsmanship; Good setting in niche; Nice symbolism;
Cons: Better symbolism; Holding the Christ Child;
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I think that the artist's rendition is quite good but I prefer to see St. Anthony in his traditional setting of holding the Christ Child on the Book of the Gospels.
