{"product_id":"harvest-cornucopia-green-stole","title":"Green Harvest Stole with Wheat, Grapes and Gold Cornucopia for Ordinary Time","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Harvest Stole is a priest's or pastor's stole in green velvet-look cloth, each panel bordered in gold galloon and embroidered the full length with a running sequence of small crosses, grapevine leaves and bundled wheat sheaves, gathered low on each panel around a gold cornucopia spilling fruit worked in several colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth panels carry the same design. A column of small gold crosses runs from the yoke to the fringe, threaded through with grapevine leaves and wheat sheaves, and the gold cornucopia sits as the visual anchor near the base, its fruit picked out in more than one colour against the surrounding goldwork. Wheat and grapes are the oldest Eucharistic pairing in Christian embroidery, standing for the bread and wine of Communion; the cornucopia adds a harvest note of abundance that the wheat and grapes alone do not carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reverse of the stole is a plain gold satin panel, visible only at the neck yoke when the stole is worn; from the front, the eye reads green velvet, gold thread and, at the ends, gold fringe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGreen is the colour of Ordinary Time, the long uncounted weeks of the church year that fall outside Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter, and this stole is built for the Sundays that make up that season. It also suits a Harvest Festival or Thanksgiving service, which many parishes keep within Ordinary Time and in green for that reason, though some traditions give the day its own festal colour instead - ask before assuming which your parish follows. 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 presiding at Communion through the Sundays of Ordinary Time, or leading a harvest or thanksgiving service who wants the wheat and grapes to carry the theme without a note in the bulletin explaining it. It also makes a considered gift for a minister known for a rural or agricultural parish, or for a harvest-focused ordination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLength and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard finished length is 120 in (305 cm), measured end to end over both shoulders, and any made-to-measure length from 84 in to 120 in costs the same as standard. Past 120 in, $10 is added for every further 5 in, up to 160 in.
