{"product_id":"ivory-marian-chasuble-blue-velvet-orphrey","title":"Ivory Marian Chasuble with Blue Velvet Orphrey and Crowned M Monogram","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn ivory chasuble with a full-length royal blue velvet orphrey, embroidered with a crowned Marian M inside a gold gothic arch and a flowering vine of lilies and stars running the length of the panel. The collar and the cuff bands are cut from the same blue velvet and worked with gold fleur-de-lys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe embroidery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe orphrey runs from collar to hem in blue velvet, held between two bands of woven gold galloon. A gold gothic arch at the top encloses the crowned letter M, with white lilies opening at its foot. From there a flowering vine climbs the panel, carrying white lilies, small coloured blossoms and gold stars, and closes at the hem with a large gold fleur-de-lys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standing collar is faced in blue velvet and set with gold fleur-de-lys, and each sleeve ends in a velvet cuff band worked with the same device and edged in gold. The back is left plain ivory, so the blue collar and cuffs carry the design when the priest faces the altar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blue is ornament; the vestment is ivory, which belongs to the white class. It is made first for \u003cstrong\u003eMarian solemnities and feasts\u003c\/strong\u003e — the Immaculate Conception, the Assumption, the Nativity of Mary, Our Lady of the Rosary, Guadalupe and Lourdes — and for the May and October devotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause ivory is a white-class colour it is equally correct at Christmas and Easter, at weddings, and at ordinations and first Masses, which is why this piece is often chosen as an ordination gift. It is not worn in Advent or Lent, at Pentecost, or in Ordinary Time.\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 ground is a smooth ivory cloth with a soft finish; the orphrey, collar and cuffs are velvet, laid on and edged with woven gold galloon, and the embroidery is stitched into the velvet rather than applied as a patch.\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. The cuff bands sit best when the width across is cut to the wearer, so it is worth doing if you have the measurements.\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.
