{"product_id":"green-chasuble-wheat-grapevine-ordinary-time","title":"Green Chasuble with Wheat and Grapevine Embroidery for Ordinary Time","description":"\u003cp\u003eA green gothic chasuble for Ordinary Time, with a gold budded cross, wheat ears and a fruiting grapevine worked down the front orphrey and narrow gold piping at every edge. This is the working set: quiet enough for a Tuesday morning, finished well enough for a Sunday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe embroidery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe orphrey is not a laid-on band but a panel marked out by two lines of fine gold piping. A budded Latin cross with fleur-tipped arms stands at the top. Beneath it, crossed wheat ears rise out of curving leaves; below them a grapevine spreads its leaves and clusters; below that two gold quatrefoil rosettes and a broad foliate scroll close the panel at the hem. The same gold piping outlines the neckline and follows the whole curve of the hem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back is left plain, with a small gold cross at the collar and gold piping along the hem. The restraint is deliberate: a single embroidered face keeps the vestment light and lets the cloth fall cleanly when the priest turns to the altar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen is the colour of \u003cstrong\u003eOrdinary Time\u003c\/strong\u003e — the Sundays after Epiphany and after Pentecost, and the weekdays between. Around thirty-three weeks of the year fall in that season, more than every other colour together, which is why most sacristies keep a plain green set for daily use as well as a richer one for feasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not worn on feasts and solemnities inside Ordinary Time, which take white, red or gold, nor in Advent or Lent, which take violet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCut and construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull gothic cut, wide across the shoulders and falling in a deep curve over the arms to a rounded hem, with no fastening. The cloth has a soft, low-sheen finish that photographs and reads well under artificial light without the glare of a high satin. The embroidery is outline work rather than dense fill, which keeps the front supple and the garment light to wear for a full liturgy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizing and made to measure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake one of the four graded standard sizes from the size guide on this page, or choose Made to Measure and send us your own figures — height, chest, waist and the front length you want. Made to Measure is priced the same as Extra Large. A vestment you will wear most weeks of the year is worth getting right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering for a date\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are dispatched within 5–7 days, and delivery typically takes a further 10–15 days.
