Jesus Christ and Theotokos fabric amulet

Amulets

Fabric amulets are small bags, most often with church symbols or images of saints. They are usually filled with incense or other small objects.

Amulets are used as talismans; for these reasons they are often attached to clothes with a pin, and sometimes worn around the neck on a cord. The amulets can also be attached to the headboard of the bed.
