St. Savvas was of noble birth and lived in the 15th century. From a young age he came to love poverty in imitation of Christ, and he spent his whole life as a humble and poor hermit, living in asceticism at the Sacred Monastery of the Honorable Forerunner on the island of Ioannina. St. Savvas became known to everyone in the region for his virtue and holiness, so that crowds of people came to him and he became their spiritual guide. He died peacefully on April 9, 1505. His memory is kept on February 3rd every year because April 9th often falls during Great Lent.

Care Instructions
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.
