It's not Panagia.

Panagia chest is higher duhovestvo - bishops.

Stuck - why similar items on sale is called Panagia . Useful to understand. As a result of this article found here : information at least a little , but sensibly stated , moreover, it is the only material on the subject , I was lucky enough to discover .
So , SW. Cyril rights - admit wrong , and there is no excuse . Went on about the masses ( a few sellers of such items , these things imenyuschih Panagia ) .
This thing - icon breastplate . These icons in the 18 - 19th centuries were made in places of pilgrimage of Christians in Palestine, on Mount Athos, and were brought out in Russia . More details can be found in the said article. Rest of the description in my first post untrue.
Lord , please forgive me for involuntary misleading.
Odaka subject is no less interesting and rare .
