drclaw Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 That early Rising Sun case is amazing! It's the grand daddy of the cases we now associate with Japanese awards. Thanks for sharing these amazing images. Can't wait to see his Imperial Russian awards. He would have received some exquisite bling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanX Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Atheists and pagans got their own? Cool! As one of the former, I appreciate the special treatment. (Unless the non-Christian one was of inferior quality...) Thanks Nick. All imperial Russian orders had two versions "for Christians" and ”for non-Christians". The only difference between these two is central tablet. That's how normal "for Christians" version of St.Anna looks likehttps://d2mpxrrcad19ou.cloudfront.net/item_images/273696/7366772_fullsize.jpg Sorry Rich, no special treatment for pagans. They will be classified as non-Christians :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
