Life

Saint Chrysanthe is commemorated on 25 October (new style, the Greek calendar), but very little is known of her. Her commemoration appears only briefly in the Small Euchologion or Hagiasmatarion, the 1956 edition of the Apostolike Diakonia, with no further information; nowhere else is she mentioned on this day.

Some other sources say she was the wife of Saint Chrysaphus, commemorated on the same day. This cannot be verified, and the Greek synaxarion says nothing about her life or death.
