The medallion, which depicts the face of the great martyr, is very interesting also. Despite the fact, that size is very small (6,2 x 4,3 cm), it’s rare, significant and precious sample. Craftsman made it by the gold. The medallion is movable, which means, that it could be used while praying separately.
