The Harrowing of Hades Rear-View Mirror Icon

The Harrowing of Hades. This icon depicts Christ's victorious descent into Hades, where He breaks the gates of death and raises Adam and Eve from their tombs. The scene symbolizes Christ’s triumph over sin and death, and the promise of eternal life to all who believe in Him. This sacred image serves as a visual reminder of Christ’s infinite mercy and divine power, inviting contemplation, prayer, veneration, and spiritual connection.

This icon is mounted onto olive wood from Bethlehem, the sacred birthplace of Jesus, and sealed beneath a clear, glossy epoxy resin for a smooth, durable finish. The icon is then carefully trimmed to size and sanded to perfection, ensuring a refined and polished surface. Each piece showcases the natural beauty of Holy Land olive wood and is fitted with a stainless steel chain measuring 17 inches, allowing it to hang gracefully from your rearview mirror as a meaningful devotional presence in your vehicle.

If you prefer the icon to hang closer to your mirror, the chain can easily be looped through the hook to shorten the length, allowing you to adjust the display according to your preference.

Because each icon is made by hand, extremely slight variations in size and tone may occur, making every piece uniquely its own. All icons are crafted with consistent dimensions of 4 cm × 6 cm and a uniform thickness of 1 cm.
