{"product_id":"green-eucharist-chalice-stole","title":"Dark Green Clergy Stole Embroidered with Chalice and Wheat, Made for Ordinary Time","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis priest's or pastor's stole is dark green cloth with a subtle tone-on-tone woven diamond lattice pattern in the weave itself. Each panel carries, low near the hem, a gold chalice above a bundled wheat sheaf and a cluster of purple grapes with a vine leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe woven diamond pattern is not embroidery but a self-pattern in the fabric, visible mainly at certain angles - the same fabric, cut and gold piping as our black Passion-themed stole in this collection, so the two work as a matched pair for a minister who wants pieces that read as one set across the colours. The embroidered motifs sit only in the lower third of each panel, leaving the rest plain green bordered in gold piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrouped together, the chalice, wheat sheaf and grape cluster name the Eucharist directly - bread, wine and the cup that holds them - rather than spreading the imagery across the full length of the panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGreen covers Ordinary Time, the long uncounted stretch of Sundays outside Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter, and this stole's restrained, lower-panel design suits the understated character of that season well. It is not a stole for Lent or Advent, which call for violet, nor for Easter or Christmas, which call for white and gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA priest, pastor or minister who wants a modern, quietly patterned stole for Communion through Ordinary Time, especially one who already owns, or plans to own, the matching black stole for Good Friday and wants the two to sit together in the vestry. It also works as an everyday green stole for a minister who prefers restrained embroidery to a dense goldwork panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLength and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard finished length is 120 in (305 cm), measured over both shoulders, with any made-to-measure length from 84 in to 120 in priced the same as standard. Beyond 120 in, $10 is added for each further 5 in, up to 160 in. Enter your height on the product page for a suggested length, and adjust it if you prefer - the figure you give travels through to your cart, checkout and order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/ordinary-time-vestments\"\u003eGreen Vestments\u003c\/a\u003e, see the wider \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/clergy-stoles\"\u003eClergy Stoles\u003c\/a\u003e range, or read the \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/fabric-guide\"\u003efabric guide\u003c\/a\u003e for more on how these woven patterns catch the light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Clergy Couture","offers":[{"title":"Standard 120 in","offer_id":49382764773611,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-STD","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure up to 120 in","offer_id":49382764806379,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M120","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 121-125 in","offer_id":49408837452011,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M125","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 126-130 in","offer_id":49408837484779,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M130","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 131-135 in","offer_id":49408837517547,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M135","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 136-140 in","offer_id":49408837550315,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M140","price":220.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 141-145 in","offer_id":49408837583083,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M145","price":230.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 146-150 in","offer_id":49408837615851,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M150","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 151-155 in","offer_id":49408837648619,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M155","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 156-160 in","offer_id":49408837681387,"sku":"TCC-STL-GRN-EUC-040-M160","price":260.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/8375\/8571\/files\/green-eucharist-chalice-stole-1.jpg?v=1788952582","url":"https:\/\/theclergycouture.com\/products\/green-eucharist-chalice-stole","provider":"The Clergy Couture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
