{"product_id":"ivory-rainbow-wing-dove-stole","title":"Rainbow-Winged Dove Stole in Ivory for Weddings, Baptisms and Ordinations","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn this ivory stole, the dove of the Holy Spirit is given wings unlike any other piece in our range: each feather runs through a full rainbow gradient, from orange at the shoulder to violet at the tip, streaming most of the length of the panel. It can be tailored to your own length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNear the top of each panel, a white dove in flight is worked with its wings elongated into long, gradient-coloured feathers that run down through orange, yellow, green, blue and purple before the colour fades out. A small gold cross sits low on each panel, near the hem, rather than at the very tip. There is no fringe; the edges are finished plain, with narrow gold piping the only trim. The dove is the standard Christian sign of the Holy Spirit, drawn from its descent at Christ's baptism in the Jordan; the rainbow gradient here is a decorative treatment of that same dove rather than a separate rainbow motif layered on top of it, which sets this piece apart from our burgundy dove-and-cross design elsewhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIvory belongs to the white class of vestments, used for the church's most joyful occasions rather than for a single season. The dove imagery points most naturally toward baptism, where the Holy Spirit's descent is central, and toward confirmation and ordination, where the same Spirit is invoked. It is not a Pentecost piece: Pentecost is kept in red in every tradition that observes it, so an ivory stole, however dove-heavy its design, stays in the wardrobe on that day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCut as a presbyteral stole, it suits a priest, pastor or minister officiating at a wedding, baptism or confirmation, and it works equally well as an ordination gift where the rainbow wing treatment will read as a personal, contemporary touch rather than a strict liturgical statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLength and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard finished length is 120 in (305 cm), measured end to end over the shoulders. Made-to-measure lengths from 84 in to 120 in cost the same as standard, and $10 is added for every further 5 in beyond that, up to 160 in.
