Description

Carved wooden pendant amulet with Panagia Eptaspathi

A wonderful wood-carved amulet from Mount Athos with a relief representation of Panagia Eptaspathi.

It is an elegant & handy handiwork made in linden or cherry wood, by monks with great skill in wood processing. In a relatively small size and with a well-thought-out construction (thanks to the cord on top), it can be placed anywhere in the house, in the car or even in a bag, so that the faithful feel that he always has the Grace and protection of the Virgin Mary close to him.

At the same time, it can be a very beautiful gift for the people we love.

On the back is the exact name of the representation.

The peculiarity of Panagia Eptaspathi

A particularly rare representation of Panagia Eptaspathi. This amulet depicts the Virgin Mary with three swords on each shoulder and a seventh piercing her heart underneath, essentially showing Her immense sorrow for what she experienced and especially for the loss of her only son. In fact, a Russian tradition states that images with this representation are usually placed on the door of the house to protect it from envy, torture and disease.
