Golden icons

Gold icons, incense pendants and pendants with a religious theme at ZL Jewelry

Items of religious persuasion are always around us and influence us. Everyone at least once in their life has tried to find solace in their faith - and therefore has long used various amulets, such as crosses made of gold or pendants. In Christian practice, icons, images of patron saints and texts of prayers are very popular. Over the centuries such items have been transformed, but have always remained something more valuable than ordinary jewellery.

Often gold body icons and amulets were never shown to anyone, even though they were richly decorated and inlaid with stones. The millennia-old tradition of creating elements of religious purpose was embodied in accessories from the manufacturer ZL Jewelry.

How to choose the right gold wearable icons?

Traditionally, there has been a rather blurred division of this type of jewellery. Often something different and original was added to one kind, leaving the old name behind. In a simplified version we can distinguish such categories of jewellery accessories presented in our online shop “ZL Jewelry”:

• Native icons are copies of famous religious objects found in temples. Since there are so many variations on the images of each saint, the jewellery can also be very diverse. The most popular are images of Nicholas the Wonderworker, the Archangels, the Virgin Mary and Jesus. Depending on the complexity of the work, size and inlay, the price of the piece also differs;
• Native icons can be of two types - either with a name of the wearer on any part of the item, or a picture of the saint in whose honour the person is named. For example, St. Andrew, St. Olga, St. Oleg;
• Religious signs - jewelry pendants of arbitrary shape depicting icons, angels and symbols of faith. The range of our shop has samples from Christianity, Judaism and Islam;
• Gold, personal amulets were originally concealed talisman, which could not be shown to anyone. This jewellery is unique in that they are reversible - one plane depicts the patron saint, while the other plane depicts prayers or parts of scripture. In the olden days, leaves with prayers, incense, relics or other significant elements were placed inside the candlestick. Over time, this practice disappeared, but the form of the ornament survived.

Icons made of gold are often created using ebony or other precious wood. Customers, if they wish, can order custom-made body icons and incense holders. zl.jewelry provides a wide range of materials for such an important piece of jewelry: different types of wood; white, yellow or red gold; diamonds or other precious stones; combination of metals; and enamel.
