Story of this Icon
This icon is based on the Diveyevo Tenderness Icon of the Mother of God from Saint Seraphim of Sarov's cell. The Saint kept seven candle holders burning before it, symbolizing the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, and referred to it as the "Joy of all Joys." The icon, depicts the Theotokos without the Christ Child and represents the moment of the Annunciation. Throughout the Communist Soviet period, the icon was kept under the safekeeping of the Diveyevo nuns and is now housed at the Patriarchal Residence's Vladimirskaya church.
May the Theotokos & Saint Seraphim pray for you!

It took a while because it had to be shipped all the way to germany but im satisfied. The wood feels nicely and it generally sooo pleasing to look at. Very lovely. God Bless <3
It's different yet perfect in every way. The size is not too small or too big. There's no colours added yet it stands out with the gold leaf finish on halo. Even the hand written thank you card with a 10% off the next purchase.. just PERFECT !
Fantastic!!
This made an excellent gift for my wife this Christmas! Each one does have it's own character and handmade appearance due to the nature of the wood and methods used. It is a humble and beautiful one of a kind icon we will cherish (and venerate) for generations!
A beautifully made ICON of a beautiful Saint. I bought this for my daughter, Eileen, who has had eye problems since before she was born. Eileen is a beautiful soul. May Saint Matrona stay near her, pray for her, comfort her, and heal her. Salve Maria.
