This sacred icon honors Saint Ephraim of Nea Makri (Ο Άγιος Εφραίμ)—a newly-revealed martyr and miracle-worker of the Orthodox Church, who suffered a holy martyrdom in the 15th century and whose relics were miraculously discovered in modern times. Known for his swift help, miraculous healings, and special care for the suffering, Saint Ephraim has become one of the most beloved saints in contemporary Orthodoxy.

The icon is printed on high-quality textured canvas and overlaid with certified pure silver, combining sacred beauty with spiritual presence.
