    Hello, I have this wall hanging that I'm not able to find another example of. Is there another term that describes it better. Also, any thoughts about age? It's 10" x 14" in size. Thanks!

    It's a little icon. So you'll want to look to a country that practices Eastern Christianity as source.

    Yes, I'd think 1960s too. What are the letters to either side of her head? They could help you identify source. ΜΡ ΘΥ? Or something else?

    Thanks guys for your input! The glass is about 6" x 9". Could it have been made in Italy in the 60's? One side reads YO and the other looks like a backwards P with a M.

    I'm now wondering how @Debora knows something as iconically British sixties as Yardley. ;)

    I'd be aging myself if I told you. Let's just say... My mother told me?
