We are so thrilled to be able to offer the Nativity icon. Celebrating and depicting the birth of our Lord, in the center an infant Christ lying in a manger. The Panagia is beside Him along with St Joseph. Christ being born in a cave is an ancient tradition, dating back to the first and second centuries. He is dressed in burial clothes to foreshadow His death. His location in a cave also foreshadows the grave in which He would be buried and where He would resurrect. This 6 x 8 icon of the Nativity in cherry is the perfect size to have on your desk or your icon wall at home. Note on wood products - All wood warps, that is something you have to remember with these icons. Warping over time will occur but it wont affect the icon. We use Feed-N-Wax for all of our icons which is our wood sealant and we recommend touching up the icons with this product as needed. If you get water spots from having the icon blessed the easiest way to get rid of them is to apply the Feed-N-Wax product mentioned above to the areas with the water spots and they should go away. Note that the icon you will receive will vary slightly from picture shown. All of our icons are made to order, sculpted by Lydia Riley and made in Montana.
