Ikonen Mautner - Orthodox Icons

Admirable and rare original Russian icons can be bought in this wonderful and unique store in the city centre of Vienna. The founder of the company, Mr. Erich Mautner, received export approvals for antique icons in the early 1960s from the Russian government. During the following years Mr. Mautner developed an extensive worldwide icon trade. Collectors and traders from all over the world came flocking by, to acquire some copies of these rare treasures. Every piece of these splendid icons is to this day examined by the icon expert of the Vienna Dorotheum and is provided with a certificate of authenticity. The expert describes what is shown and when the icon was painted and with his signature, he confirmed the genuineness. We offer icons of different themes from the 17th, 18th and 19th century including: The Mother of God, Saint Michael, Saint Nicholas, Saint George, Saint Panteleimon, Christ Pantocrator, Easter and the Festivities as well as bronze icons and orthodox crosses. Furthermore, we offer icons from famous painting schools such as Palekh, Suzdal, and Vladimir, where masters and pupils together painted the most splendid icons of high artistic quality. Beyond Russia a bigger number of valuable icons is extremely seldom seen, with the exception of some museums and galleries. In our shop, however a big number of select icons are on exhibition and can be bought. We also specialised in shipping the icons worldwide with all necessary documentations. We also buy antique icons, take care of restorations and appraise icons together with experts.
