Saint Anthimos of Chios, Orthodox Wooden Mounted Icon
Inspired by the reverence of Orthodox tradition, this Saint Anthimos of Chios Orthodox Wooden Mounted Icon honors a saint deeply loved for his holiness, simplicity, and merciful care for others. Saint Anthimos is remembered as a 20th-century monastic of Chios, founder of the Monastery of Panagia Voithia, and a spiritual guide whose life of prayer and service drew countless faithful seeking comfort, counsel, and hope. He is also remembered for serving as chaplain to a leper hospital, where his ministry transformed suffering into a place of spiritual consolation.
Crafted on solid wood and hand-finished with care in Brooklyn, New York, this devotional piece is made using a high-quality printed sacred image applied with the decoupage technique. Its traditional Orthodox style makes it especially fitting for a home prayer corner, office, church bookstore, or as a meaningful gift for someone devoted to Saint Anthimos and the spiritual life of the Church.
Created with respect for Orthodox iconographic tradition, this piece should be described accurately as a handmade wooden mounted icon made with decoupage, not as an original hand-painted icon or hand-painted hagiographic artwork.
