Purple Priest Stole with Long Crosses with Wheat and Grapes

Purple Priest Stole with Long Crosses with Wheat and Grapes. Long outlined crosses extend down both purple ends, accompanied by wheat stems, vine leaves and grape clusters. The gold-colored embroidery follows a vertical line rather than forming separate badges. Small curling tendrils soften the linear cross design, and a modest cross at the neck echoes the main motif. The combination of cross, grain and grapes gives the decoration a clear Eucharistic character without adding a text inscription.

Embroidery and fabric

Fabric specified for this model: Smooth fabric, 100% polyester. Supplied in a presentation box with transparent window.

Liturgical use and selection

A priest wears the stole around the neck with both ends hanging at the front; at Mass it is worn over the alb and beneath the chasuble. Choose the color according to the celebration and applicable liturgical norms.

Purple is used during Advent and Lent. Choose this color according to the celebration and local liturgical norms, coordinating the stole with the chasuble or cope when those vestments are worn.

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.

Care and storage

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; fiber content alone does not establish a safe washing method.
