At the age of 7 she was married with a wealthy man. Due to the raids of the Saracen pirates Theodora and her relatives fled to Thessaloniki. Theodora had 3 children; but her two last children died.

Care Instructions
My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.
Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.
Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
