According to your faith may it be...

 

Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker or Nicholas the Pleasant is the most revered saint in the world. Favorite saint of the Russian people. He protects from poverty and need: when his icon is in the house, he makes sure that there is prosperity in the house, and protects from the need for anything. Nicholas the Wonderworker became famous as the intercessor of the unjustly offended and the patron of all who are on the road - fishermen, pilots, sailors, travelers. Saint Nikolas also patronizes women, children, beggars, innocent prisoners and animals. The Holy Orthodox Church honors the memory of St. Nicholas not only on December 6 and May 9, but also weekly, every Thursday, with special chants

Description: Silver Icon of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker with Jesus Christ (on the left) and Mother of God (on the right) miniature silver icon.

The models that became the basis for the production of miniature icons were carved by hand. The author of the images is a carver-artist who has made many other products with faces for our workshop - priest Vladimir Cherkasov

 

Once the models were ready, precise casts were made of them. For this purpose, the most accurate method to date was used – silver 925 base galvanoplasty

 

We insert the resulting silver icons into a frame made of American walnut - this is a noble, dark and hard type of wood that is difficult to scratch. Walnut is not afraid of large temperature changes, which are inevitable in any climate. No matter how cold or hot weather, you can be sure that nothing will happen to the icon

We took into account the curved shape and created a frame shaped to best fit into interior

 

The icons are attached to specially selected double-sided tape, which leaves no marks and securely fixes the icon on the wall. It is also recommended to immediately choose the right place for the icon: it is not advisable to re-glue it, since the fastening will already be weakened and may become loose
