Capturing the essence of this young saint, our Saint Philomena granite statue highlights this young martyr who was killed by the Roman Emperor Diocletian when she rejected his advances. Saint Philomena was only 13 and was persecuted severely when she chose to remain a virgin and is frequently depicted with arrows. Available in several sizes, our St. Philomena granite sculpture pays tribute to this sweet saint who is believed to be a Greek princess. Hand carved and hand sculpted from a single block of solid grey granite, our Saint Philomena granite statue will add a holy statement to the garden and comes beautifully hand carved to deliver the character of this saint who released a series of miracles when her tomb was opened in The Catacombs of Priscilla on the Via Salaria Nova with three tiles reading "Peace be to you, Philomena” in 1802.
