Silver icon with Saint Paul. Handmade silver icon on natural wood, made with 925ο silver with local 22K gold plating. The natural wood used for the synthesis of the icon is beech (fagus) from Mount Athos, a wood that is receptive to aging techniques that give the appearance of vintage to the wood, without altering the depicted image.
The depictions of faces, hands, halos or other representations are depicted in excellent quality and clarity silkscreen with "vivid" colors. The silver frame of the icon is held by nails to resemble the original icons. On the back side, the icon has a small metal ring made of horseshoe nails so that it can be hung.
Paul was born in Tarsus, Cilicia. Initially, he was a cruel persecutor of Christianity. His conversion to become a Christian occurred in 36 AD, when a miracle happened. It was when Jesus revealed in front of him. He was beheaded in 66 or 68 AD and is considered the first Christian theologian after the Jesus. Saint Paul the Apostle celebrates on June 29th.
