    Beautiful! Do you happen to know from when this is? Such rich ornaments and that beautiful colors! You will not find a vestment like this very often today. I am glad you like and appreciate wearing it.

    Pater Edmund,
    That chasuble is gorgeous– do you know anything about its history or how it was made?

      I’m afraid I know very little about it— except that it is supposed to be from the 17th century.
