All my staff could be inside keeping only.
Please keep in mind :
- Hold it in dry clean place.
- It is not protected from water. White patches could appear in areas which were sprinkled with water. So, absorbing water wax has the ability to become whitened. However, this partial defect is quite easy to remove - at any time after the consecration of icon is enough to put on a "whitened" areas any oil (linseed, olive) preferably with a brush, and to wipe with a soft cloth after 15-20 min.
- The carvings have very accurate details (faces of people, corners, frame ornaments) that could be damaged from hits or fall from height.
- If you wish to refresh the icon’s look you can cover it with any oil as it is describe above.
