Priestly stole with embroidered gold and silver cross and fish

Simple and refined priestly stole in polyester, decorated at the ends with embroidery of a cross and fish, symbolizing Christ, the Eucharist, and the evangelical mission of bringing people to the faith. 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 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.
