As early as the 9th century A.D., under the reign of Tsar Boris the First when Bulgaria first of all Slav states adopted the Christianity, the sacred craft of icon carving was spread in the country by monks. To preserve the centuries-old tradition of icon carving and icon painting and pass down their skills to the generations to come, they established schools at some of the monasteries. In 11-13th cc A.D. wood carved icons were widely introduced into Russia. As of the 15th century, after the invasion of Bulgaria by the Turks who destroyed nearly all monasteries, Russia became the main center of icon making among the Eastern Orthodox counties. In the 18th century Bulgarian woodcarving schools were established in Tryavna and Dryanovo monasteries by artisans conversant with the rich Russian tradition of icon making. The unique icon carving and icon painting style created at that time has remained intact hitherto.
All icons
presented here are entirely crafted by skilled Bulgarian artisans rigorously adhering to
the ecclesiastical canon. To reach the highest quality in each icon, constant attention is
being paid to uncompromising choice of materials: wood, grounds, tempera paints, gold and
silver coatings, varnishes, etc.
All prices quoted C.&.F. U.S. East Coast airport are negotiable depending on order. Price
quotations for any other destination can be provided forthwith.
Preferential prices are offered for purchasing large quantity.
