Artwork from Mount Athos : What it depicts

On one side of the amulet is the Virgin Mary the Seven-Sword. The representation is so detailed that the seven swords piercing the heart of the Virgin Mary can be seen. In fact, according to a Russian tradition, the Virgin Mary of Eptaspathi protects against torture. On the second side of the jewelry there is a relief representation of Jesus Christ, while just below is engraved the phrase “LORD JESUS CHRIST HAVE MERCY ON ME”, which is essentially a small prayer.
