This table icon depicts Saint Artemius, one of the most venerated Christian martyrs of the 4th century. A former military commander, he suffered for Christ during the persecutions under Emperor Julian the Apostate. Saint Artemius is honored as a patron of soldiers, a defender of the Christian faith, and an intercessor for justice and spiritual strength.
The icon is crafted using the refined and intricate cloisonné enamel technique — a unique combination of fine metalwork and sacred Christian art. Thin metal wires form the contours of the image, which are then carefully filled with colored enamel by hand. Each layer is kiln-fired at high temperatures, giving the image its vibrant colors, durability, and signature glossy finish.
Its compact size makes this icon ideal for display at home, in the office, or in a prayer corner. It is not only a sacred devotional object but also a meaningful and elegant spiritual gift.
