Saint Great Martyr Paraskeva Friday of Iconium. Wooden orthodox icon.

Christ is depicted here in a picturesque manner with eyes full of sadness for us sinners.

Original icon: 16th century. Now located in the Cherepovets Art Museum.

Paraskeva (Greek - Friday) is a Christian saint, a great martyr who suffered during the persecution of Christians under the Roman Emperor Diocletian for refusing to renounce the Christian faith and was beheaded by the governor of the Roman province of Iconium. Paraskeva is considered the patroness of many traditional women's occupations and trade. Since Paraskeva is the personification of Good Friday, she is often depicted with the instruments of the passion.

The icon is made by printing on a wooden board. Paints are mineral, do not fade with time. The thickness of the board is 2 cm. The board is covered with primer by hand. The image is covered with wax. Each icon has a metal mount on the back side so that you can hang the icon on the wall.

You can buy the icon in three sizes:

  • 13 х 10 centimeters (5,1 x 3,9 inches)
  • 19 х 14 centimeters (7,5 x 5,5 inches)
  • 26 х 19 centimeters (10,2 x 7,5 inches)

Our icons are made by Orthodox craftsmen. You can read more about the technology here.

We hope it will be a good gift for you and your loved ones.
