Lampada

Our story

A light before dawn.

In an Orthodox home a small lamp burns before the icons through the night, and the saints whose names the family bears keep watch beside it.

We gather what belongs in that corner: folding icons of the saints people are named for, each with the Guardian Angel given at baptism; crosses to wear for life; prayer ropes; and gift sets for name days, baptisms, weddings and the first icon corner of a new home.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

Psalm 118 (119):105

Our Orthodox priest consecrates icons, crosses and sets with holy water and the prayers of the Church: our folding diptychs one by one before they leave the workshop, each filmed with its number, and every other item before it ships. Each comes with a certificate he signs and a small vial of holy water.

We choose each saint by name with you, pack every order by hand and ship to all 50 states, DC and APO/FPO addresses.
