Traditional Christian Sacred Craft: Virgin Mary Giatrissa Miniature Byzantine Icon
Enrich your home and daily devotional life with this handcrafted miniature Byzantine icon portraying the Virgin Mary Giatrissa (Panagia Giatrissa), a revered holy image celebrated throughout the Orthodox world for divine comfort, peace, and maternal solace.
The inspiration to create these miniature icons was born from a genuine everyday reality: most of us simply do not have sufficient space at home to assemble a large, traditional home altar (iconostasi). In response, we thoughtfully scaled down the overall dimensions while keeping every single iconographic detail intact from full-sized icons. As a result, our miniature icons sacrifice none of the artistry, reverence, or intricate detail of their larger counterparts, offering the exact same spiritual presence in a compact form.
Measuring an ultra-portable 4.2 x 5 cm (1.65 x 1.96 in), it serves as both a space-efficient icon corner piece and a dependable travel keepsake. It fits smoothly into a pocket, wallet, handbag, briefcase, or vehicle compartment for blessing on every journey. Created as a fine lithograph mounted on cured solid wood, it features a gleaming gold-foil background sealed under a protective waterproof varnish overlay to guard against daily handling, wear, and moisture.
