Description

Icon of Saint Series by the Spanish manufacturer Credan SA.

In 1975, the small workshop Creaciones Dangel was transformed into the company CREDAN, without forgetting the craftsmanship created by a carefully selected team of people. Since then, Credan products have been known and admired worldwide.

The quality of the raw materials used (including 24-karat gold), refined design, and incredible elegance have made the company's clients the most influential people from around the world.

The production process is time-consuming and meticulous to ensure an amazing appearance and craftsmanship quality, with raw materials meeting the highest standards—from gold, silver, and copper to carefully selected wood.

We would like to present to you the exceptionally beautiful iconography of saints by Credan SA.

As Pantokrator Christ, He is depicted standing or seated on a throne, with an open Holy Bible in His left hand and His right hand raised in a blessing gesture. The finger positioning refers to the Greek monogram of Christ: IC XC. Two fingers are joined: the thumb and the ring finger. The index finger and the bent middle finger form the letters IC. The crossed thumb and ring finger, combined with the little finger, form XC. This is not the only interpretation of the gesture; according to some theologians, the connected thumb and ring finger symbolize the duality of Christ's nature: divine and human. Meanwhile, the connection of three fingers—the little finger, ring finger, and thumb—symbolizes the Holy Trinity.

The Book that Jesus holds in His left hand refers to His mission of teaching. It usually contains a quote from the Gospel of John: "Judge not by appearances, but judge with righteous judgment".

In the Orthodox tradition, the depiction of Christ as Pantokrator is most often placed on the ceiling of the central dome of a church. This tradition, dating back to the 11th century, has symbolic significance. During the Macedonian Dynasty (867-1056), when iconoclasm ended, Byzantine church art was revived. Even then, Christian temples began to be built according to the concept of creating an "image of the cosmos." The placement of the Pantokrator icon on the central ceiling was meant to show Christ looking down upon His world from above.
