Silver Icons made of 950 silver with selected wooden frame. The painted parts of the image are hand-painted and are the reproduction of a Byzantine masterpiece.
This tradition began in the early Orthodox years, when handmade icons began to be coated with silver or copper, giving each sacred image a distinct form. According to the story, it started as a gift ("Tama" in Greek) in the name of God, and not for decorative purpose or to improve the appearance of the image.
Today, we are able to provide a wide variety of Silver Icons with depictions of Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary and the Saints.
