This graceful hand-painted icon honors Saint Chloe of Corinth, one of the earliest Christian women mentioned in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 1:11). Rendered in the traditional Byzantine style with egg tempera and adorned with genuine 22K gold leaf, the icon is mounted on hand-carved, asymmetrical natural wood—capturing the sanctity and dignity of a woman of deep faith.
Saint Chloe is remembered as a devout follower of Christ who played a significant role in the early Corinthian Church. Her household was known for its devotion, and her name is a symbol of faithfulness, hospitality, and spiritual strength. Though little is known about her life, her mention by the Apostle Paul affirms her importance in the growth of the early Christian community.
