The neck of the mace is supported by crests made of four solid brass struts, each plated with 18-carat gold, while the neck itself is also plated with 18-carat gold to accommodate four stones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nairobi City County Assembly has unveiled a new gold-plated mace costing Kes. 33 million.
