The Epitheos Cross is worn by the Bishop of the Orthodox Church, but also by the Presbyters, who are honoured with the title of Protopresbyter or Archimandrite. Wearing the Cross, the Bishop or Elder says the following: Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me, both now and ever, and for ever and ever. Amen .

The archpriestly encyclical is considered the emblem of the episcopal rank in the Orthodox Church. The encyclical is a metal icon usually oval-shaped, but often rectangular, decorated with colorful stones or enamel, worn with a gold chain from the neck of the bishop to his chest at all times, whether he is officiating or not. The archpriest’s encyclical is made with respect to the Orthodox tradition in our selected Greek workshop.
