{"product_id":"ivory-corpus-christi-stole","title":"Ivory Corpus Christi Stole with Chalice, Host, Wheat, Grapes and Clasped Hands","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Eucharistic stole is worked in ivory satin with a full sequence of Communion imagery down each panel: a cross enclosing a globe, a chalice with the host and a loaf of bread, wheat and grapes, a pair of clasped hands, and a dove above a gold tassel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach panel carries six motifs in sequence from the shoulder down. At the top, a gold cross encloses a stylised globe, setting the cross over the whole world rather than one place. Below it sit the chalice and host beside a loaf of bread — the Eucharist named outright — followed by wheat and a cluster of purple grapes, the raw elements of bread and wine. Further down, a pair of clasped hands, rendered in two different skin tones, reaches across the panel: an image of unity and reconciliation rather than a specifically Eucharistic sign. The sequence closes near the hem with a white dove worked above a small gold tassel. The back of the stole is left plain ivory satin with gold cord edging and gold fringe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIvory and white belong to the same liturgical colour class, used for the greatest solemnities: Christmas, Easter, Corpus Christi, Trinity Sunday and the feasts of the Lord and of saints who were not martyrs. The direct chalice-host-bread imagery makes this stole a natural choice for Corpus Christi specifically, and the clasped hands broaden it to reconciliation, unity or mission-themed Communion services, where a parish's practice allows it. In many traditions white is also worn for weddings and, by family choice, for funerals. It is not worn in Lent or Advent, which take violet in most Western use, nor through the green Sundays of Ordinary Time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA priest or pastor presiding at a white-class Eucharist will find the full set of Communion imagery here in one piece, without needing a second stole for a unity or mission-focused service — the clasped hands motif already carries that theme.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLength and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard finished length is \u003cstrong\u003e120 in (305 cm)\u003c\/strong\u003e end to end over both shoulders, in a presbyteral cut worn straight down each side.
