Hand-Painted Catholic Saint of Lisieux Figurine | 5¾ in. A vintage hand-painted devotional figure of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, one of the most beloved saints in the Catholic tradition. Often called "The Little Flower," St. Thérèse is almost always depicted holding roses, a reference to her promise that she would "let fall a shower of roses" from heaven after her death—a symbol of answered prayers and quiet acts of faith.
The front of the base is marked "ST. THERESA."
