Put my heart and soul into honoring this  Russian Icon with this comition to design and fabricate a silver cover to dress the Icon of Virgin Mary and Child

This Icon is known as  "Assuage my Sorrows".
Shows the Mother of God with Her left hand placed under Her slightly tilted head, suggesting that the Queen of Heaven listens to the tears and the prayers of all the faithful who appeal to her with their needs, woes and sorrows. With Her right hand the Holy Virgin holds onto the Divine Infant. The Saviour holds in His hands an open scroll before Him, on which the following words are inscribed:
“Judge righteously; each show mercy to one another; do not offend widows and orphans, and do not keep malice in your heart towards your brother.” 

Handmade repoussé in fine Silver sheet.
Frame ornamented with amber, chrysocolla and carnelian.
Halo ornamented with garnets, lapis lazuli, ruby and malachites.

Thanks @iconarts for you valuable information.
