Dear colleagues,
I would like to open a new theme: the decorations on the back of the metal icons.
Often these decorations represent the tree of life or recall the paradisiac dimension, so they have a clear symbolic value.
Sometimes geometric patterns are represented that are difficult to understand for me.
I'd like to create a section dedicated to crosses and crucifixes, and another one dedicated to icons.
I also ask their opinion to moderators and administrators.
Here I add the only icon of my collection with a decoration on the back (the tree of life I think).
Thanks to all those who want to express their thoughts on this theme and, I hope, also show the icons of their collections with decorations on the back
