Vestments of the Russian Clergy Are Most Costly
The robes of the Russian clergy are the richest and most costly in the world. They are unattainable under £200. The Holy Synod houses vestments of fabulous value inside the Kremlin. One is pearl embroidered with the Nicene creed worth up to £850,000. Seven miters studded with diamonds rubies and emeralds and a golden cross belt the eye. The exact value remains undisclosed though rumors say a buyer offered £45,000,000 for the House of the Holy Synod and its contents.
