Stole length guide

A stole is sized by one figure: its finished length, end to end over the shoulders. Our standard is 120 in, and any length up to 120 in costs the same.

How to measure a stole: A is one side, from the top of the neck to the end above the fringe; the finished length is A doubled

How to measure

  • A - One side: from the back of the neck, down the front to where the end should fall (knee to mid-calf). Double it for the finished length.

Worn for Ordinary Time Mass, First Communion and ordination.

Symbolism

The wheat and host cells repeat the two elements of the Eucharist across the whole stole.

The chalice near the hem gathers both into the image a priest sees each time he vests.

Details

About this stole

The Ivory and Gold Chalice Wheat Stole is a priest's stole with its full length covered in a repeating diamond lattice: a wheat sheaf in one cell, a host marked with a cross in the next, run end to end down both panels. Near the hem the pattern gives way to a single larger emblem, a chalice under a radiating sunburst, worked just above the gold fringe.

01

Design and symbolism

Both panels are worked edge to edge in gold thread on an ivory satin-faced ground with a tonal woven lattice texture. The lattice cells alternate two motifs on repeat: a wheat sheaf and a small roundel bearing a host marked with a cross. Wheat and host together stand for the bread of the Eucharist, sown, gathered and consecrated. Where the lattice ends, near the bottom of each panel, a larger chalice rises under a radiating sunburst, the image a priest sees looking down as he vests, and the image a congregation sees raised at the altar. The reverse is left plain ivory, with only a small gold cross worked at the back of the neckline, a discreet finishing touch rather than a design statement.

02

Liturgical use

White and gold is the colour of joy in the Western calendar. It is worn through Ordinary Time at any Mass without a more specific colour assigned, and it is the proper colour for Corpus Christi, where the eucharistic theme of this stole is most at home. It also serves well for First Communion and for a priest's own ordination. It is not a stole for Lent or for a funeral Mass in the older use, both of which call for violet or black, and its symbolism sits with the altar, not with the Advent or Marian calendar.

03

Who it is for

This is cut for a priest, in the presbyteral style worn straight down both shoulders rather than crossed. It suits a parish priest wanting a Sunday and feast-day eucharistic stole, and it is a natural ordination gift for a man about to say his first Mass.

04

Length and fit

Standard finished length is 120 in (305 cm), measured end to end over the shoulders. Any made-to-measure length from 84 in to 120 in costs the same as standard; beyond 120 in, $10 is added for every further 5 in, up to 160 in. Enter a height in the box on this page and it will suggest a length; you are free to override it. Whatever you enter, the exact length, the height given and any notes you add travel through to your cart, checkout and order, so every detail you chose stays with your order.

06

Care

Dry clean only. The gold-thread lattice embroidery and metallic fringe should not go through a home wash or dryer.

Store the stole rolled rather than folded, so the lattice pattern does not crease along a fold line, and keep it out of direct sunlight, which will dull the gold thread over time. Press only from the reverse, on a low setting, and never press directly over the embroidery or the fringe.

FAQs

Before you order

Is this stole suited to Corpus Christi?

Yes. The wheat, host and chalice motifs are eucharistic images, and white and gold is the proper colour for Corpus Christi in the Roman calendar. It also works for any Ordinary Time Mass, First Communion or ordination.

Why is the back of this stole plain?

The reverse is left as plain ivory fabric, with only a small gold cross worked at the back of the neckline. This is typical of a well-made stole: the embroidery budget goes into the side that faces the congregation, and the small neckline cross is there so the stole still reads correctly if the reverse is briefly seen while vesting.

How long should my stole be?

Enter your height in the panel above and the page works it out: roughly 100 in for a wearer up to 5 ft 4 in, 104 in to 5 ft 8 in, 108 in to 6 ft, 112 in to 6 ft 4 in, and 116 in above that. Those figures follow the usual clergy proportion of 51, 53 and 55 inches per side.

It is a guide, not a rule. Some clergy like the ends at the knee and some at mid-calf, and a stole worn over a full alb hangs differently from one worn over a cassock. If you already know the length you like, type it in and ignore the suggestion.

Does a made-to-measure length cost extra?

Up to 120 in, no. Any finished length from 84 in to 120 in (213 to 305 cm) is available at the standard price. Past 120 in we add $10 for every 5 in, so 125 in is $10 more, 130 in is $20 more, and 160 in, the longest we offer, is $80 more.

The price on the page is the price you pay. Choose Made to Measure, type the length you want, and the band updates the price before you add to cart. We confirm every made-to-measure length by email. If you need longer than 160 in, write to support@theclergycouture.com and we will quote it.

Is this cut for a priest or for a deacon?

It is made in the presbyteral cut, worn straight down over both shoulders. That is the way a priest, a pastor or a minister wears a stole, and it is what the photographs on this page show.

A deacon wears the stole across the body, from the left shoulder to the right hip. If you need it made that way, choose Made to Measure and say so in the notes, or write to support@theclergycouture.com before ordering so we can confirm it for this design.

How should the stole be cared for?

We recommend professional dry cleaning for embroidered vestments. Store the stole flat or loosely rolled rather than folded, so no crease forms across the embroidery, and keep it out of direct sunlight to protect the gold thread. The Journal's vestment care guide covers pressing, storage and stain removal in full.
