Description from the seller

Splendid Russian Orthodox icon with riza (oklad) in gilded silver Zolotniki finely crafted, depicting three saints with radiating halos and other figures, with rich ornamental decoration.

The plate is made with repoussé and pierced work, with elegant vegetal and architectural motifs. The openings reveal a red fabric background, which creates a strong color contrast and enhances the sacred composition.

Precise and clearly visible punch marks
Period: mid-19th century (ca. 1855)
Insignia in Cyrillic characters partially visible on the riza.
Good overall condition for the era, wear and small losses consistent with age and devotional use.
Gold plating with authentic antique patina
Measurements: 11.5 x 8.5 x 1.5 cm. Weight: 90 g.

Object of great historical and religious charm, typical of Tsarist Russia production, highly sought after by collectors of Orthodox sacred art and antique silverware.
