Our archimandrite who is the abbot of the Australian monastery at Bombala wears such a "Monomakh" mitre. It looks very attractive. I don't know the history but am guessing it is an outdated form of the Russian mitre (still used by Old Believers.)

Bishop John Shakhovskoy (of San Francisco) and later Bishop Basil Rodzianko (of Washington and then S.F.) both wore this type of mitre.

Which member of the Rurik family came down to take the family cap into their care in Muscovy-Rus?

It is not too late to buy your favourite bishop or archimandrite such a mitre for Old Christmas. http://www.sofrino.ru/products/show/3287

Most beautiful.... I find the gold ones especially exquisite. Are these passed down, or are they bought by each new bishop? Who actually buys them--the diocese or the bishop's family? One must admit that the Orthodox clergy really know 'how to dress'!!!

( I am assuming that was what they 'OY' was for--  ) Now, I would love an answer to my other questions from someone in the know...

I guess they're more common than I thought. I've just never seen a bishop here wear one until Vladyka Jonah.

Seriously, could someone please point out for me the links in the Sofrino website to the vestments? I'd like to see the vestments. The website is in Russian and it's all Greek to me :-D

Ung Ung, You're right. I think there was a thread a while back that showed pictures of Old Ritualist bishops wearing the mitres.
