Byzantine Silver Icon of Panagia of Seven Swords

This exquisite Byzantine serigraphy icon, crafted from pure Silver 925* and enhanced with PVD for lasting durability, captures the profound moment of the Virgin Mary of Seven Swords while adhering to the esteemed Athonian technique. Its intricate artistry not only conveys deep religious significance but also enhances the aesthetic appeal of any setting.

According to the tradition, this rare depiction of the Virgin Mary symbolizes the fulfillment of the prophecy by Elder Simeon: "Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is spoken against. And a sword will pierce through your own soul also, that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed" (Luke 2:35).

In this portrayal, the Mother of Christ is shown with seven swords, symbolizing her sorrows, with three swords on each shoulder and one sword piercing her heart from below. In the Bible, the number seven often signifies completeness and abundance. Here, the seven swords represent the full extent of Her deep sorrows and the pain She experienced throughout Her life.

The sorrow of the Virgin Mary was immense when She witnessed Her only Son endure the Divine Passion and face crucifixion, making our own troubles seem small and insignificant in comparison to Her suffering. This is why the Virgin Mary is always a compassionate helper in our daily trials and a source of comfort in our grief.

This icon is designed for versatile display; it can be hung on a wall or placed on a flat surface, making it an elegant addition to any home or sacred space. The harmonious blend of religious themes and artistic craftsmanship, along with its rich theological context, renders it a meaningful tribute to the Christian faith.

Available Colors:

Choose from four beautiful colors for the icon: Blue-Dark Red, Blue, Gray, Gold, Blue-Light Red, Silver-Gold.
