Guardian Angel Round Icon

Written in strict accordance with the sacred canons of Orthodox iconography, this hand-painted round icon of the Holy Guardian Angel serves as an intimate window into divine protection.

Holy Tradition teaches that every Christian receives a personal guardian angel at Holy Baptism—an unseen defender, intercessor, and guide who protects the soul from spiritual harm, inspires good works, and stands beside the soul at the hour of death.

The unique round panel lends this icon a distinctive, medallion-like intimacy. It is traditionally kept near a bed or in a family prayer corner as an aid for daily morning and evening prayers.

Iconography & Theological Symbolism

The angel is depicted in close focus on his countenance, framed by visible wings that symbolize swiftness in executing God’s divine will. His serene and watchful gaze invites quiet contemplation of his role as an unseen companion along life’s path. The sacred inscription curves in a graceful arc along the circular edge.

The background is overlaid by hand with pure 24k gold leaf and detailed with hand-engraved sunburst patterns, reflecting the uncreated Light of Tabor in which the heavenly host eternally dwells.
