Care & hanging
Hanging your icon
- Every icon has a mounting point on the back, ready for a single nail or picture hook.
- Small sizes come with a stand, so they can also rest on a shelf or in an icon corner.
- Choose a wall away from direct sunlight, radiators, fireplaces and damp.
Caring for the gold
- Dust gently with a soft, dry brush or cloth.
- Never use water, polish or cleaning products on the gold leaf or the painted surface.
- Handle the icon by its edges and avoid touching the gilding.
Silver Reliefs
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from humidity to protect the silver plating.
