| Icon Stands Item #1306 & Item #1308 When we asked how one mounts an icon in their home, the most common answer we received was that one leans the Icon against the wall. This works, but the Icons also are subject to falling over. That's why we have designed these two types of icon stands. |

Icon Stand The second type we call our "Cradle Orthodox" Stand. (Sorry for the pun, but our sense of humor has been affected from breathing too much wood dust!) This brass-hinged wood stand gently cradles your icons while also providing a back support to reduce potential curvature and warping. Stained and sealed, the Cradle Orthodox Stand is a wonderful addition to an icon corner, shelf system or table top home worship area. |

Icon Stand We call our first stand the 'Theophilus," which means "lover of God." St. Luke, believed by many to be Orthodoxy's first iconographer, addressed both his Gospel and the Book of Acts to Theophilus, so we thought we would give honor with our oak, scissor-type stand capable of holding small to large icons up to one and one quarter inches thick. Lined with felt to protect the surface of your most precious icons, the Theophilus Stand allows your icon to stand |
