Sacred works made in Italy
Icons and sacred art made in Italy for Europe and the world

A work of modern sacred art, made in Italy
An icon by Concetta Basile is a work of contemporary sacred art in the fullest sense: painted today, entirely by hand, with the materials and canon of the Byzantine Tradition. A seasoned wooden panel prepared with gesso and animal glue, egg tempera with ochres, earths and oxides, 23¾ karat gold leaf, inscriptions in Greek or Latin, and a certificate of authenticity on real parchment with photographs of every stage.
Commissioning and shipping
Consultations take place online, in English or Italian. During the work you receive photographs of every stage; the icon arrives with protective packaging and, on request, insured shipping, together with its certificate of authenticity on real parchment and its explanatory booklet. Shipping conditions and any customs formalities are checked case by case at the time of commission.
