Small Russian Icon - St. Xenophon & his wife, St. Maria in silver cover

The icon depicts Venerable Xenophon of Constantinople and his wife,  Venerable Maria, who were noted citizens of Constantinople in the fifth century. Despite their riches and position, they distinguished themselves by their simplicity of soul and goodness of heart. Saints Xenophon and Maria went to separate monasteries and dedicated themselves to God, laboring in silence and strict fasting to receive from God the gift of wonderworking.

Hallmarks on the revetment cover: Maker's mark CM, Saint-Petersburg town mark, and 84 silver purity mark
