{"product_id":"red-tree-of-life-pentecost-stole","title":"Red Pentecost Stole with Rooted Tree of Life, Dove and Flame Embroidery","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Tree of Life Pentecost Stole is a red stole embroidered on both panels with a white dove, an orange-gold flame and a large tree in brown and green thread, its roots visible at the base of each panel. It can be tailored to your own length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach panel carries a white dove near the shoulder, the Holy Spirit's usual image at Pentecost, followed by a flame in orange and gold recalling the tongues of fire at the Spirit's descent in Acts 2. Below both, a tree with a visible root system fills most of the panel's lower two-thirds, its branches in green leaf and its roots worked in brown thread at the hem. The tree of life is a long-standing Christian image drawn from scripture, and pairing it with roots left in full view, rather than trimming the tree at ground level, gives it more presence than a simple foliage motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLiturgical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRed belongs to the red liturgical colour class, worn for Pentecost Sunday, for the feasts of martyrs and apostles, and by custom for ordinations. It is not the colour for Ordinary Time, Advent, Lent, or white-class solemnities. The dove-flame-tree sequence here reads specifically as a Pentecost and growth-in-faith design, so it suits Pentecost Sunday and Spirit-themed services more naturally than a general martyr's-feast red.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA priest, pastor or minister presiding at Pentecost, or marking an ordination where the imagery of the Spirit taking root in a new ministry has particular resonance. Its scale and detail also make it a considered ordination or installation gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLength and fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard length is 120 in (305 cm) end to end over the shoulders, worn straight down in the presbyteral cut. Made-to-measure lengths from 84 in to 120 in cost the same as standard; beyond that, $10 is added for each further 5 in up to 160 in. The height box on this page suggests a length from the height you give, which you can adjust yourself. Your chosen length, height and any notes carry through to the cart, checkout and order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore the rest of our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pentecost-vestments\"\u003ePentecost Vestments\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/red-vestments\"\u003eRed Vestments\u003c\/a\u003e, browse the wider \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/clergy-stoles\"\u003eClergy Stoles\u003c\/a\u003e range, or read the \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/vestment-glossary\"\u003evestment glossary\u003c\/a\u003e for more on stole symbolism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Clergy Couture","offers":[{"title":"Standard 120 in","offer_id":49382805930219,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-STD","price":184.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure up to 120 in","offer_id":49382805962987,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M120","price":184.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 121-125 in","offer_id":49408856228075,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M125","price":194.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 126-130 in","offer_id":49408856260843,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M130","price":204.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 131-135 in","offer_id":49408856293611,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M135","price":214.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 136-140 in","offer_id":49408856326379,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M140","price":224.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 141-145 in","offer_id":49408856359147,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M145","price":234.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 146-150 in","offer_id":49408856391915,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M150","price":244.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 151-155 in","offer_id":49408856424683,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M155","price":254.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Made to Measure 156-160 in","offer_id":49408856457451,"sku":"TCC-STL-RED-TRE-062-M160","price":264.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/8375\/8571\/files\/red-tree-of-life-pentecost-stole-1.jpg?v=1788954480","url":"https:\/\/theclergycouture.com\/products\/red-tree-of-life-pentecost-stole","provider":"The Clergy Couture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
