There are used just traditional high-quality natural materials! The icon is painted on wood with the authentic egg tempera technique, solid lime wood panel reinforced with horizontal oak support bars, gesso, genuine gold leaf 23 karats, and linseed oil varnish.  Each and every icon that I offer is unique and a labor of prayer and love. The icon is made to order especially for you within 3-7 weeks of order.  The lead time for an order depends on the size of the icon.  The process takes particular time and care and is done separately for each icon.
