Russian Orthodox icons serve as focal points for prayer and are considered windows to the divine, traditionally painted following strict theological canons and techniques developed over centuries.

They were typically painted with egg tempera on prepared wooden boards, often embellished with metal covers known as rizas or oklads made from brass, silver, or gilt metals.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural ageing of the wood and pigments, hand-hammered metalwork details, traditional Cyrillic inscriptions, and construction methods consistent with nineteenth-century workshop practices.

An antique icon can be mounted on a neutral wall or displayed on a mantelpiece within a shadow box, allowing its historical craftsmanship to contrast effectively with modern minimalist decor.

Icons should be kept away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperature fluctuations to prevent wood warping and degradation of the tempera and metalwork.
