Hand-Painted Icons

Our Icons depict all the Byzantine themes and are hand-painted in the traditional way of Byzantine art. The icons are painted with egg tempera and gilded with gold leaf on wood, with three different types of backgrounds:

• ordinary gold,
  
• polished gold,
  
• no gold.
  

Production takes 10 to 15 days depending on the size and type of the background. Our iconographers will be happy to answer your questions on which type of background to choose for a specific icon by clicking here.
