Theotokos Panagia Portaitissa Icon Santos Rosewood Edition (10cm x 14cm)

Theotokos Panagia Portaitissa. One of the most beloved and miraculous icons of the Mother of God. According to tradition, the wound and drop of blood on her cheek appeared after a soldier in Nicaea during the period of Byzantine iconoclasm struck the original icon with a spear. According to tradition, when the icon was stabbed, blood miraculously flowed out of the wound, revealing her compassion and shared suffering with humanity. The icon reflects the Virgin’s deep love, protection, and intercession for all who seek her help, inviting contemplation, prayer, veneration, and spiritual connection.

This Theotokos Panagia Portaitissa icon is carefully glued onto solid Santos Rosewood and sealed under a smooth, glossy epoxy resin, resulting in a vibrant finish. Once set, each piece is trimmed to size, sanded to perfection, and finished with a high-quality wood treatment oil that enhances the natural beauty. 

Since each icon is individually crafted by hand, subtle variations in size and tone may occur. The artisanal processensures each piece is unique, adding to its authentic character and charm. All available sizes feature a uniform thickness of 2.5 cm.

A timeless and reverent piece, perfect for display in your home, prayer space, or as a meaningful gift.
