Holy Silver - Part 6
Back with another silver piece of Greek Orthodox iconography, this time one on the more modern side!
Unfortunately, it's also the one with the least silver in it, but more on this later.
Let's first see it:
As you can see, it's a modern, simplistic interpretation of mother Mary and baby Jesus, or Theotokos as she is commonly known in our place.
If memory serves me right, it was gifted to us for the christening of our son, about a year ago.
A closer look on the details:
I really love the combination of mirror and mirrorless finish!
On the back we have the COA
If you have been following these posts then you know the pieces I have shared so far are .950 silver.
Unfortunately this one has a really low concentration of silver. How low? One God knows.. If I was to take a bet I'd say maybe 1% 😂
Here's what the COA says in various languages:
This product is made of aluminium metal which contain silver with the method of PVD coating. This product has been under special treatment to remain unaltered over time. Free to export.
I forgot to take the typical comparison with a euro coin and honestly I am too lazy to do it now 😂 As you can see in the first photo, the icon has pretty much the same size with the shoe box below it.
All in all, a beautiful piece with a tiny bit of silver in it!
Below are some links with the other Greek icons made of silver I have shared so far in case you enjoyed this post:

Love the mirror parts and how they show up through all the detail. Too bad this piece has so much aluminum. Don't recycle it for the aluminum on accident, just kidding. Thanks for sharing!

It is a beautiful piece, I keep many silver things, cups, chains, and 950 silver here in my country that many years ago was very economical and used a lot.
I have a set of silver cutlery for 12 places. Still deciding whether to sell it or not. And I keep my silver "morocota" (a big coin) that my grandmother gave me as a gift for my baptism many years ago.
Beautiful keepsake, mirror and matte in all the right places.

Naaaaa
This one's beautiful 😍
A Mothers love it true and previous for her kids. It's beautiful.
I like your Post, and I've very impressed with all the comments your receive...
I thought it was a bit too clean to be full silver but I guess having some silver coating is better than nothing.

It's a nice holy silver. So much details and great for collecting !
Looks modern and a really nice style, unfortunately it's only silver plated
Wao its looks so beautiful and amazing. No one else in the world can love the way a mother can love her child.
Aluminium .... such heresy. Baby Jesus deserves much more :P
Wow!
