Priestly stole with embroidered silver cross and ears of wheat

Simple and refined priest's stole in polyester, decorated at the ends with an embroidered cross in silver thread, along with ears of wheat and a vine in gold thread. Available in the four liturgical colors: ivory, green, purple, and red. The stole is 246 cm long, designed to extend well below the knees of the priest wearing it. The use of the stole is always mandatory during celebrations and rites for bishops, priests, and deacons (who use a different stole, as they wear it differently from priests). When wearing it, the priest (bishop or presbyter) lets it hang straight from the shoulders down to the legs, while the deacon wears it diagonally, from the left shoulder to the right hip. Over time, the stole's symbolism has evolved: initially, it represented the office that deacons and priests accepted during ordination; later, it came to symbolize the virtues of the priest, making it a symbol of humility, wisdom, patience, purity, and fortitude.
