Product description

A small oval medallion with a border of semicircular petals depicts one of the most revered icons in Russia with the image of the Kazan Mother of God. The head of the Virgin is tilted to the right and barely noticeably adjoins the head of the Baby Jesus, who is shown standing tall and extending his right hand to the world in a blessing gesture. On the reverse side of the product is a "Song to the Virgin" with a towering miniature flourishing cross. On the end of the product are the words of prayer "It is worthy to eat."

However, pure silver is too soft to create durable jewelry, so it has been used as alloys since ancient times.

Each of them reveals a certain facet of Her relationship with the Divine Son.
