The icons we have been able to purchase through your store are extremely beautiful and enjoyed and venerated by many in our parish We are so grateful to you for making them available and ask GOD to bless you for making our spiritual lives richer because of them.

I am extremely impressed with The Russian Store. From my initial email to them, they have been very responsive and knowledgeable. The relic I ordered arrived quickly and when promised. Along with the relic being very well packaged to avoid damage, I also received a Certificate of Authenticity that provides pertinent details and an accurate description of the relic. I will continue to use The Russian Store and have already recommended my friends and colleagues to them.

I just wanted to send you an email to let you know that the Passion Relics arrived safe & sound this morning. They are more beautiful than the photos shown in the description on your website!

I received the very beautiful Entombment icon on Good Friday. Our priest carried it in the procession with The Holy Shroud. It was a great blessing and especially to receive it on Good Friday and take to the church in perfect timing. Thank You again and again ?? for the holy icons!!

I received my shipment of relics today, and wanted to thank you. They are BEAUTIFUL. And the certificates are beautiful too. Thank you for carefully packaging everything with such care (relics in a wooden treasure box and certificates in clear plastic). These relics are indeed a treasure and will be honored tonight when I pray vespers. I will be definitely be looking to buy more relics from the Russian Store in the future.

1907 documented reliquary with relic of the Crown of Thorns of Jesus Christ

An attractive ornate glass-fronted hallmarked silver pendant reliquary theca decorated around the opening with the Crown of Thorns, housing precious relic of the Thorn from the Crown of Thorns of Jesus Christ. The relic is displayed on the ground of red silk surrounded by the image of the Crown of Thorns. On the back, under a protective cap, the reliquary is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint with a coat of arms of Monsignor François-Marie-Benjamin Richard (†1908), Archbishop of Paris (1875-1908), France. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued by Cardinal Richard in 1907 where the relic is described in Latin as sacram particulam Spinae Coronae D.N.J.C. (a precious part from the Thorn of the Crown of Thorns of Our Lord Jesus Christ).

According to the New Testament, a woven Crown of Thorns was placed on the head of Jesus during the events leading up to his crucifixion. It was one of the instruments of the Passion, employed by Jesus' captors both to cause him pain and to mock his claim of authority. It is mentioned in the gospels of Matthew (Matthew 27:29), Mark (Mark 15:17) and John (John 19:2, 19:5), and is often alluded to by the early Church Fathers, such as Clement of Alexandria, Origen and others, along with being referenced in the apocryphal Gospel of Peter. Since at least around the year 400 AD, a relic of the Crown of Thorns has been venerated. In 1238, the Latin Emperor Baldwin II of Constantinople yielded the relic to French King Louis IX.
