Red Alpha and Omega Chasuble with Wide Collar

Alpha and Omega embroidery and a wide collar distinguish this red satin chasuble. Gold-colored thread and gold edging set the decoration against the red ground. The model offers a symbolic design for celebrations requiring red vestments, with an inner stole included in the set.

Embroidery and construction

The satin is 100% polyester. Alpha and Omega are worked in gold-colored embroidery, with gold edging completing the finish. The wide collar is part of the model’s distinctive shape. The gallery provides views of the whole garment, the embroidery, collar and fabric, allowing the decoration to be assessed at different scales.

Liturgical use

In the Roman liturgy, red is associated with the fire of the Holy Spirit, the blood of Christ and the witness of martyrs. It is used on Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Pentecost and specified celebrations of apostles, evangelists and martyrs. Follow the calendar and rubrics for the particular celebration. Color alone does not make every decorative motif equally suitable: consider the embroidery alongside the readings and character of the liturgy.

Choosing the chasuble

For a shared sacristy, compare the final table’s length with the needs of the priests who most often celebrate. Full front and back views help assess the fall of the fabric and the placement of the embroidery. Consider the wide collar together with the alb and other red vestments already in use.

Wearing and storage

Wear the chasuble over the alb and stole, arranging it symmetrically on the shoulders before entering the sanctuary. Check that the arms can be raised freely and that the central embroidery is not folded. After use, allow the fabric to dry fully before hanging it on a broad hanger that supports the shoulders.

Store the vestment in a dry, ventilated wardrobe, protected from strong light and moisture. Leave enough space to prevent other garments pressing against the embroidery and collar. Follow the supplied care label for cleaning, ironing and refreshing; decorative threads, edging and any velvet elements need particular care.
