Patron of firefighters, Poland and Austria; protector from floods.

Florian was an officer in the Roman army in Austria. He was well known for his bravery and is said to have stopped a town from burning by saying a prayer and throwing a single bucket of water on it. When ordered to execute a group of Christians, Florian refused and proclaimed that he was a Christian also. He was sentenced to be burned to death. He stated he would climb to heaven on the flames. Instead, Florian was then thrown in a river with a stone around his neck to be drowned.

The unique making process of these porcelain pendants allows for more detail in designs than other mediums. These designs are fired into the clay at 2200 degrees, so they will not peel or wear off. Each piece is surprisingly lightweight.
