Perlenstickerei-Set Mini-Ikone auf Kunstleinwand „Heilige Vera“

“St. Vera” is a young martyr with loose hair and a gold cross. The fewest colours in the batch — only eight.

What the picture shows

The saint is shown to the waist without a veil: chestnut hair is braided and falls over her shoulder in a long strand. Her outer garment is pale, white and blue, worked in fine beads, and a wide red cloak shows on the right. Her right hand, raised to her chest, holds a gold cross on a slim shaft. The halo is a ring of amber beads and the ground is golden rays with red dots at the top. A gold border runs along the whole edge, and the lower part of the image is taken up by a name plaque between two ornaments. Beads cover the clothing, the halo and the border, while the face and hands stay printed on the canvas; most of the golden radiance also stays print.

Its small size makes the icon suitable at home and on the road — it is often carried in a folding case. The wooden frame in the photo is not part of the kit. The pattern is printed in full colour on the canvas, so there is nothing to transfer.
