Handmade wood-carved icon of Archangel Michael, made in the Holy Skete of Saint Demetrius on Mount Athos.
The wood-carved icon is embedded in a handmade 925o sterling silver frame, decorated with Byzantine motifs on the entire surface. On the front side there is an engraved face of Jesus Christ within a 22K gold-plated medallion. Inside, a cross with gold-plated details has been engraved in the corresponding size.
The entire composition is a unique work, which creates a precious icon, with respect for the tradition of ecclesiastical art. The details in the wood carving, as well as the elaborate design that has been carved into the silver, testify to the great craftsmanship of the Athonite monks who have kept the monastic tradition of handicrafts alive in the Athonite state for so many centuries.
A collectible work from Mount Athos that presents the Athonite tradition through the art of wood-carved icons and the elaborate processing of gold and silver.
The work is delivered in a luxurious velvet-lined case.
Dimensions: 10 x 12 cm.
