This is the Epitheos Cross, worn by bishops and elder priests who have been honored with the title of Protopresbyter or Archimandrite. Upon wearing the cross, the clergy proclaim the sacred words:
"Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me, both now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen."
A piece of profound spiritual and artistic significance, crafted with care in our selected Greek workshop.
