Further Thoughts on Machine-Manufacture of Liturgical Art

This is post 2 of 3 in the series “Hand and Machine” Yesterday, Jonathan Pageau posted an article in which he juxtaposed two videos – one of the carving of an icon by hand, and another of the carving an icon by a computer-controlled machine.

A Painted Wooden Chalice Set

Historically in the Orthodox world, it must have been very common for chalice sets to be made of wood.

Wooden Vessels
