Description

A handmade porcelain with the representation of Panagia Glykofiloussa, crafted entirely by hand.

The original icon of Glykophiloussa is one of those icons that were saved during the iconoclasm and were miraculously transported to Athos. It was the property of Victoria, the pious wife of the iconoclast Simeon, who, in order not to surrender it, threw it into the sea. The icon, floating upright in the waves, reached the arsenal of the Philotheu Monastery, where it was received with great honor and joy by the abbot and the fathers of the Monastery, who had been notified of the apparition of the Virgin. At the point of the shore, where they deposited the image, a holy water gushed forth. There every year on the Monday of Epiphany there is a litany and consecration.
