Silver icon with Virgin Mary Prodromitissa. 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.
Dimensions: 25 x 32 cm.
In the Romanian Cloister of the Holy Prodromos of Mount Athos there is the miraculous icon of the Virgin of the Prophet. It is one of the rare icons of the Orthodox Church because it was not painted by a human hand but was created miraculously. More about Virgin Mary Prodromitissa.
