Our Lady of Kazan Handmade Wooden Lacquer Icon Egg on Stand

The Kazan icon of the Virgin is a popular piece, especially as a wedding gift!  

Our Lady of Kazan, also known as the Theotokos of Kazan, is one of the most revered icons in Russian Orthodox Christianity. Discovered in the 16th century, it is celebrated as a miraculous image of the Virgin Mary and a symbol of protection, faith, and national unity.

Believers pray to Our Lady of Kazan for guidance, healing, and intercession in times of personal or communal need. Its tender depiction of the Virgin gazing at Christ symbolizes Mary’s compassion and her role as an intercessor for humanity.

This sacred icon continues to inspire devotion and is celebrated as a beacon of hope and spiritual comfort.
