Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – ikona „Św. Maria”

“St. Mary” is a saint in a violet maphorion holding a golden vessel of myrrh.

What the picture shows

The figure is shown to the waist, slightly turned. A violet-lilac maphorion with a gold edging covers her head and shoulders, light hair showing beneath. A red-and-gold necklace with a pendant sits at her throat. Her right hand is pressed to her chest; in her left, low near the edge of the icon, is a lidded gold vessel. The halo is broad and worked in golden beads; the ground is cream with an embossed scroll and a name plaque above. The beads fill the maphorion, the necklace, the vessel and the halo, while the face, the hands and the ground stay printed on the canvas.

The 230×300 mm format suits both a home corner and a name-day gift. The full-colour print on the canvas shows where each bead goes, so the kit is taken up by people stitching with beads for the first time as well, as long as the first rows are not rushed. The frame is chosen separately: it is not included in the kit.
