Item Details

Description

**First Time At Auction**

Eastern Europe, Greece, ca. late 19th to early 20th century CE. A group of three hand-carved wooden prosphora seals featuring images of the cross, and each section adorned with traditional designs. The projecting handles also present a seal incised with a Christogram. A prosphoron (leavened bread used in the Orthodox Christian and Greek Byzantine Liturgies) is the bread offered for the Eucharist - made from only four ingredients - flour, salt, yeast, and water. It is comprised of two separate round pieces of leavened dough that are placed atop one another and baked together to form a single loaf; this double loaf symbolizing the dual nature of Christ, both human and divine. Prior to baking, each prosphoron is stamped with a seal like these, featuring the image of a cross incised with traditional designs and liturgical messages. Size of largest: 4.25" W (10.8 cm).
