Handcrafted Icon of Saint Basil the Great

Description

We are pleased to present a handcrafted artistic reproduction of a medieval Orthodox icon depicting Saint Basil the Great, one of the most revered Fathers and Teachers of the Orthodox Church.

The icon is handcrafted from pure copper sheet, on which the image of the saint has been carefully recreated with attention to every detail. The copper is mounted on a linden wood board, finished with a walnut-colored stain. The warm tone of the wood, combined with the natural glow of the copper, creates a striking composition that gives the icon a noble and timeless appearance.

Saint Basil the Great was the Archbishop of Caesarea, a theologian, and a Christian writer. He is one of the Three Holy Hierarchs – the great Fathers and Teachers of the Church. He left behind a rich spiritual legacy, including numerous sermons, letters, and theological writings.

Saint Basil the Great is commemorated on January 1 – St. Basil’s Day.

This icon is a wonderful choice for St. Basil’s Day, a name day, birthday, baptism, wedding, or housewarming. It is also a meaningful gift for a family member, loved one, or as a beautiful gesture wishing someone health, prosperity, and God’s protection.

It can be given for a special occasion or simply as a heartfelt gesture when you wish to express respect, gratitude, and love.

The icon is supplied unblessed, allowing its owner to have it blessed personally, according to their wishes and the particular occasion.

To make the gift even more special, we offer an additional laser engraving service on the back of the icon. We can add a prayer, personal wish, name, date, short inscription, or a special message for the recipient, turning the icon into a personal keepsake filled with meaning and emotion, one that can be treasured and passed down through generations.

Each of our icons is a unique piece. It is handcrafted with great attention to detail and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

The icon is not classified as a cultural heritage item and may be legally taken or shipped outside the country.
