What does this mean?

Hello, this item is a Russian Orthodox icon likely depicting the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child in the traditional “Our Lady of Kazan” style, set within an ornate gilt oklad (cover) embellished with polychrome cloisonné-style enamel decoration. The use of detailed repoussé work and enameled border panels suggests late 19th to early 20th century production, possibly from one of the Moscow or St. Petersburg workshops known for combining religious iconography with high-quality metalwork. The piece measures approximately 8 x 10 inches and maintains a traditional composition seen in devotional art meant for private veneration.

From a market perspective, icons of this type have strong collector interest, particularly when retaining their oklad with intact enamel and gilt surfaces. Based on condition and stylistic execution, the estimated value ranges between $400 and $800 USD.
