Gothic Chasuble "Lamb" 601-AGC16

Gold has long been associated with the Church, especially in Catholicism, due to its status as a precious metal and its subsequent association with a royal or divine being. In many churches, gold was used to decorate or symbolize important elements of worship, and can also represent monetary offerings. Gold is also a symbol of God and divine authority, love, hope and light in some religions, while representing growth and potential blessing from a higher power.
