The Theotokos is shown beside Him with a protective and reverent gesture, while Saint Joseph stands on the opposite side, creating a balanced composition around Christ. The 24K genuine gold leaf, polished gold, and hand-engraved decorations give the icon a refined handcrafted character. The egg tempera technique creates the rich colors and detailed modeling characteristic of traditional Orthodox icon painting.A protective varnish completes the surface of the icon, helping preserve the painted and gilded work. The icon ships in a protective box, making it suitable for both devotional use and gifting.
