The Fiery Ascent of the Prophet Elijah 12x16 Embroidered Orthodox Icon

This large-format embroidered icon of Saint Barbara the Great Martyr is a formal devotional work, created in our Ohio workshop using traditional Orthodox iconographic proportions and high-density liturgical embroidery techniques.
Measuring 12 x 16 inches, this icon is designed as a centerpiece icon — suitable for a home prayer corner, chapel, parish office, or devotional display.
Unlike printed canvas or flat reproductions, this icon is fully embroidered with thousands of precision stitches, producing a living surface of light, depth, and texture that gently responds to natural illumination.

About Saint Barbara
Saint Barbara is venerated throughout the Orthodox world as a protector against sudden death and a powerful intercessor for those facing fear, injustice, and suffering. Her icon is often kept in prayer corners, near bedsides, and in homes seeking her steadfast protection and courage.
