Copper icon Virgin Mary Odigitria
The images of the Holy Virgin and the Infant, beautifully recreated in the copper representation, bring kindness, tranquility, and hope into the home. The icon is handcrafted from copper and placed on a linden wood board, treated with fire for greater authenticity. The image is handcrafted and placed on a board produced in the village of Oreshak.
The icon depicts the Divine Mother as this is one of the oldest and most widely used ways of portraying the Holy Virgin. In the icon, she holds the infant in her left hand and symbolically raises him to her breast with the other. The infant Jesus blesses the Virgin Mary and is depicted as small in stature yet mature and wise.
The Holy Virgin is considered the patroness of mothers, homes, and families. She protects children and assists those who pray for a child, success, and family well-being. The feast days dedicated to the Holy Virgin include August 15th - the Dormition of the Virgin, September 8th - the Nativity of the Virgin, and November 21st - the Presentation of the Virgin.
This icon is not consecrated, and that can be done as desired, according to the occasion. It is a suitable gift for name days, birthdays, weddings, baptisms, house blessings, the birth of a child, or simply as a wish for health and family happiness.
