A wooden icon is one of the most meaningful gifts in Orthodox tradition — for a christening, wedding, name day or a new home. A hand-carved icon in solid beech combines spiritual value with beauty that graces a home for years. Here’s what to know before you choose.
Why a Wooden Icon
Unlike printed icons, a carved wooden icon is three-dimensional, warm and unique. Each one is made with attention to detail and carries a sense of tradition and craftsmanship.
Which Occasion It Suits
- Christening: an icon of the patron saint or the Virgin Mary
- Wedding: a double icon or a crucifix for the couple’s home
- Name day: an icon of the corresponding saint
- New home: a protective image for the new household
How to Choose the Image
For a name day, choose the icon of the saint whose name the person carries. For a christening — the child’s patron saint. When in doubt, a loved and universal choice is one of our Orthodox icons and crosses.
Material and Craftsmanship
