Tassels

 The garments or vestments worn by Priests, Bishops, and other clergy members have special significance in the Orthodox Church. These are very decorative and elaborate garments with special designs and embroidery, and made from rich materials with a lot of embroidery work done in gold and silver threads.
 
Special Significance
Orthodox Church Priests use special vestments or garments during the liturgy as it demonstrates their faith. Garments worn by Orthodox Priests come with liturgical vestment tassels and of different sizes and designs. These tassels are made from different threads, usually gold, silver, silk, and brocade and may have beautiful symbolic designs in embroidery. Orthodox Church Priests and Bishops of the Western and Eastern sections have vestments that have decorations that may contain elaborately designed metallic buttons, galloons, medallions, trim cords, and tassels.
