Frequently Asked Questions About IC XC NIKA
Q: What is the meaning of “IC XC NIKA” on this icon?
A: “IC XC” are the Greek abbreviations for Jesus Christ (Iisous Christos), and “NIKA” means “Conquers.” Together, they proclaim “Jesus Christ Conquers,” signifying His victory over death. The “Blessing Hand” position (the Christological Monogram) represents the name of Jesus and symbolizes His dual natureโfully God and fully man.
Q: How is this wooden-mounted icon made?
A: Every icon is handcrafted in our Brooklyn studio by a Master Designer. We use high-resolution, fade-resistant lithography that is professionally mounted onto a solid wood panel. The edges are hand-finished, and the surface is treated with a protective UV-resistant coating to ensure the icon lasts for generations.
Q: Is this icon suitable for a home Iconostas (Prayer Corner)?
A: Yes. Due to its solid wood base, this icon has the physical weight and presence required for a traditional home prayer corner. It can be displayed on an icon stand or mounted on a wall as a central “Window into Heaven.”
Q: How do I care for my handmade icon?
A: To preserve the hand-applied finish, simply wipe the icon gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or water. Because it is made of natural wood, we recommend keeping it away from direct heat sources or extreme humidity.
Q: Can I request a custom size for my favorite Saint, Lord, or Panagia for my home?
A: Yes! Since we manufacture every piece in our home-studio, we can accommodate custom prepaid requests to fit your specific home prayer corner (iconostasis) or wall display. Please email us at shop@cmtgraphics.com to discuss your custom project.
