ICONS

Handcrafted Traditional Orthodox Icons

The master iconographers at St. Elisabeth Convent prayerfully write heirloom-quality Orthodox icons, preserving the sacred meaningful beauty of traditional Byzantine art.

An Orthodox Christian icon is a painted Gospel. It conveys Gospel truths and important spiritual values through the means of art. Each detail is filled with deep meaning, be it the color, hand gestures, certain objects, the entire composition, or the perspective. An icon shows a saint who is already glorified and transformed—this is why he or she, as a rule, does not move, but is static, calm, and enlightened.

Icons remind the people of our times that apart from the present world, there is an alternative world, the true world that we can enter only through hard work and effort, many prayers, and frequent communion.

A window into the Heavenly Kingdom in Your Domestic Church

Orthodox icons are an essential part of any Orthodox home. Handcrafted with care, each icon is a beautiful reminder of the Orthodox faith. The intricate designs feature bold colors, lifelike details, and authentic craftsmanship.

Whether you are looking for a spiritual reminder or simply appreciate religious artwork, these holy icons are perfect for any home. Hang one in your living room, bedroom, or any other place you'd like to add a touch of beauty and faith. With their timeless beauty, these authentic pieces will be a cherished addition to your home icon corner for years to come.

We Also Create Icons for Churches

Alongside icons for the home, our iconographers paint large-scale icons for church iconostases, altars, and chapels. From a single commissioned icon to a complete set for your parish, we work closely with clergy and church communities to match the size, style, and liturgical tradition your church requires.
