Beautiful!

My very first icon. I absolutely love it. Beautiful and great quality!

Amazing

Exceptionally beautiful. I ordered the 7.9 x 11. It has a recessed edge which adds subtle depth and creates a soft framing of the image. The colors are rich and sharp. The gold leaf is brilliant. The fidelity of the print is marvelous. It feels very sturdy as well. I am beyond pleased with this icon.

Beautiful

I ordered the 5 x 7 size. The icon is very beautiful. The quality is exceptional. The case that it comes in is a very nice added touch. I did have a question about my order and the response was very quick and very kind. Shipping was timely and very well packaged. I look forward to purchasing additional icons from this vendor. God Bless.

Excellent quality

Truly beautiful.

Mother of God

5-stars!

Amazing Icon

It’s my first time to buy an Icon and I truly loved the Icon, with all its details. It arrived on time and fast and with the note added in the back of the icon as requested. Excellent customer service and for sure it won’t be my last purchase form you! Thanks

Astonishing

The quality is super good. Arrived on time, decent packaging. Beautifully painted and amazing people! Highly recommended..

Absolutely Gorgeous!!!

I really enjoyed this icon and gave it as a present for a baptism (I was the godmother) - the picture does not do this icon justice as in person it was much more beautiful. In addition, the box and packaging that it came in were outstanding and I would highly recommend, especially if you are giving as a present because I did not need to buy a box for it. I highly recommend this icon - the quality is great and I will definitely be buying more icons from this company!

The Resurrection

$120.00

The Story Behind This Icon:

The icon of the Resurrection, also known as “Christ’s Descent into Hades” and “the Anastasis”, is the icon of Easter, celebrating Jesus’ triumph over death. The icon depicts Jesus Christ descending into Hades and pulling Adam and Eve from the tombs, symbolizing His victory back to the very beginning of mankind. The two golden bars under Jesus’ feet (note that His feet and hands still carry the signs of His crucifixion) are the gates of Hades which He has broken open. On the left of the icon, we see David and Solomon, representing those who died before Jesus’ crucifixion, waiting patiently in Hades for their Messiah. On the right side of the icon, we see Abel as a shepherd, the first person to die as a result of the Fall, as well as Saint John the Baptist. In the darkness below, keys, locks & chains symbolize that He has entered and conquered both death and Hades.

The Resurrection

During this Lenten season , I wanted to add to my portfolio of icons depicting the Lord’s ‘trampling death by death’ with the hope of his ‘Anastasi’ resurrection. The quality and workmanship of this item is breathtaking and stands out among my collection (see the Ivón at the center of my wall). It brings to life the power of His triumph over the Devil in Hades. From the time I ordered this product to delivery by USPS took only 5 days . The product was in a beautiful case and I received a small cross to add to the experience. I plan to purchase more of these quality icons from Athonite as a result .

Heaven on Earth!

I ordered the Resurrection icon (size 8"x10", recessed style), which arrived today. It was packaged with great care and attention.

When I opened the USPS box and saw the icon's presentation box, I was already impressed. This will be a Baptism gift for a husband and wife, and the presentation boxing is beautiful (see the above video).

When I opened the presentation box, the beauty of the icon was simply overwhelming! The gold background it heavenly, and the detail of the image is lovely. The mounting is beyond study. This icon was made to last.

I am completely satisfied with the quality and beauty of this icon and highly recommend Athonite.

breath taking

Excellently beautiful. You can tell the nice handy work that goes into their handmade Icons.

The Resurrection

I just wanted to say thank you for my magnificent icon of the Holy Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It took my breath away. The workmanship is impeccable! After a rough day at work, what a true Blessing from God to come home to this beautiful piece of art.

Blessings to you always …

The Protection of the Most Holy Mother of God - Athonite

The Protection of the Most Holy Mother of God

$59.00

The Feast of the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos is celebrated by the Orthodox Church on October 28 (moved by the Church of Greece from October 1 to coincide with “Oxi Day” in honor of the Theotokos’s protection of the Greek armed forces in their resistance of the Axis invasion). This commemorates the miraculous appearance of the Mother of God at the Blachernae Church in Constantinople in the mid-tenth century. It was in this church where the robe, veil and part of the belt of the Theotokos were preserved after being recovered from Palestine in the fifth century. On Sunday October 1, during an all night vigil, when the church was overflowing with the faithful, the Fool-for-Christ Saint Andrew, at four o'clock in the morning, beheld the Theotokos appearing above the people, holding her omophorion outstretched as a protective covering. She was clothed in gold-encrusted royal purple, and shone with an ineffable radiance, surrounded by apostles, saints, martyrs and virgins.

Our Beloved Holy Mother tearfully prayed for Christians for a long time, coming near the bishop's throne to continue her prayer. After, she took her veil and spread it over the people praying in the church, protecting them from enemies visible and invisible, resplendent with heavenly glory and gleaming like the rays of the sun. Saint Andrew gazed trembling at the miraculous vision and asked his disciple, named Epiphanius, standing beside him, "Do you see, brother, the Holy Theotokos, praying for all the world?" Epiphanius answered, "I do see, holy father, and I am in awe."

The Holy Icon pictured here is our Icon of the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos. On this glorious Feast we implore the defense and assistance of the Queen of Heaven, "Remember us in your prayers, O Lady Virgin Mother of God, that we not perish by the increase of our sins. Protect us from every evil and from grievous woes, for in you do we hope, and venerating the Feast of your Protection, we magnify you."
