An Authentic Orthodox Votive of Deep Devotion and Gratitude — Hand-Finished Embossed Heart Design with Complete Hanging Kit
Express your targeted prayers of dedication, emotional restoration, or profound gratitude with our beautifully crafted Tama Votive Offering Heart Metal Plaque. Measuring 6 x 8.5 cm, this exquisite silver-tone ex-voto (τάμα) displays a bold, high-relief embossed heart, a timeless ecclesiastical symbol of love, faith, and spiritual devotion. Upgraded with a rich royal blue satin ribbon, a miniature Christian cross, and a dual-mounting setup (hanging cord and safety pin), this premium plaque is completely ready to adorn your church icons or home altar setup.
Embossed Heart Motif: The central focal point features a beautifully polished, high-relief embossed heart, mathematically centered to catch the warm flicker of nearby vigil lamps.
Gold-Plated Perimeter Accents: The rectangular plaque is framed by an intricate, braided gold-tone border punctuated with ornate Byzantine-style corner flourishes, creating a stunning silver-and-gold contrast.
Sacred Embellishments: The top is adorned with a vibrant royal blue satin bow, from which suspends a delicate, finely detailed miniature silver-tone Christian Cross.
Complete Ready-to-Hang Kit: Designed for effortless placement, the back of this lightweight plaque includes a pre-tied hanging cord to easily loop over icon frames or kandili chains, plus a secure safety pin (παραμάνη) to cleanly attach it to liturgical velvet cloths or church curtains.
The Beautiful Sacred Custom of Tamata Offerings
In the Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition, Tamata are deeply personal votive offerings suspended directly from the frames of holy icons, vigil lamp chains, or altar shrines. These plaques generally serve two beautiful spiritual purposes: either as a humble physical petition or as a glorious testament of thanks following an answered prayer. This dual silver-and-gold piece bridges your private interior prayer rule with the ancient, unceasing traditions of the historic Church.
