Saint Paisios the Athonite Mounted Icon

Saint Paisios the Athonite is a beloved modern Orthodox saint known for humility, prayer, discernment, and compassionate spiritual counsel. This Saint Paisios the Athonite mounted icon is handmade on solid wood in Brooklyn, New York, using a high-quality sacred print, decoupage application, and careful hand finishing.

Created for home prayer corners, desks, shelves, and thoughtful Orthodox Christian gifts, this wooden icon offers a reverent reminder of patience, repentance, and trust in Christ. The compact mounted design makes it easy to place in a small icon corner while still preserving the warmth and presence of traditional Byzantine devotional art.

Rooted in the reverence of Orthodox tradition, this Saint Paisios Byzantine Wooden Mounted Icon reflects the peaceful spiritual presence of a saint deeply loved for his humility, simplicity, and holy counsel. Saint Paisios is remembered throughout the Orthodox world for his ascetic life on Mount Athos, his compassion for others, and the spiritual guidance he offered to countless faithful seeking comfort, clarity, and strength.

Crafted on solid wood and hand-finished with care in Brooklyn, New York, this devotional piece is created using a high-quality printed sacred image applied with the decoupage technique.

Saint Paisios continues to inspire Orthodox Christians through his example of patience, discernment, repentance, and love for Christ. Made with respect for Orthodox iconographic tradition, this piece should be described accurately as a handmade wooden mounted icon made with decoupage, not as an original hand-painted icon or hand-painted hagiographic artwork. A timeless devotional work, it offers sacred beauty and a quiet reminder of spiritual steadfastness in daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Who was Saint Paisios of Mount Athos?
A: Saint Paisios (1924–1994) was a simple Athonite monk who became one of the most revered spiritual elders of the 20th century. Canonized in 2015, he is known for his profound spiritual salt, his guidance on modern family life, and his deep humility. This icon depicts him in his monastic habit, reflecting the light of the Holy Mountain.

Q: How is this icon made?
A: Each icon is handcrafted in Brooklyn, New York, by The Faith Shop NY. A high-quality printed sacred image is applied to solid wood using the decoupage technique — a method of layering and sealing the image onto the wood surface for a durable, long-lasting finish. Each piece is hand-finished with care, which means slight variations in color or surface finish are normal and part of what makes each icon unique.

Q: When is the feast day for Saint Paisios?
A: The Orthodox Church celebrates the feast of Saint Paisios on July 12th. Because of his modern-day intercessions and relatable teachings, this wooden-mounted icon is a popular gift for students, parents, and those seeking spiritual clarity in the modern world.

Q: How should I display and care for this handmade icon?
A: This icon is designed for a home prayer corner (iconostasis) or a personal workspace. To clean it, simply use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid water or cleaning chemicals, as the natural wood and hand-applied decoupage finish from our Brooklyn studio are best preserved in a stable, dry environment.

Q: Can I request a custom size for my favorite Saint, Lord, or Panagia for my home?
A: Yes. 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.
