Ecru Priest Stoles
Ecru priest stoles offer a warm light background for Marian monograms, IHS, chalices, crosses and Paschal Lamb embroidery. This collection also includes a Polish commemorative design and a wedding model with a Polish inscription. Some stoles use burgundy contrasting panels, while others keep the decoration directly on the ecru fabric. The product photographs show the actual design and help distinguish the warm shade from bright white.
Choosing a stole
Ecru is a warm light shade to compare with white or cream vestments for celebrations using white. The photographs help assess the difference from a bright white fabric; the embroidery does not determine the liturgical colour by itself.
Compare the motif placement and the shape of the ends with the vestments already used in your church. Check the measurements listed below against a well-fitting stole; a model’s height or a close-up photograph is not a reliable size guide.
After use, hang the stole or lay it flat, avoiding firm folds through embroidered areas. Keep it dry and protect the decoration from pressure and snagging. Follow the care label supplied with the garment for cleaning and ironing; fibre content alone does not establish a safe washing method.
