Priest's stole with embroidered golden and silver JHS symbol

Priestly stole made of fabric composed of 80% polyester and 20% wool, with a solid-color finish and JHS embroidery accompanied by a floral motif that extends almost to the bottom of the stole and appears on both sides. Available in the 4 liturgical colors. The stole is 260 cm long overall and, when worn, extends well below the knee. Made in Poland by a company specializing in the production of sacred vestments. The use of the stole is always obligatory during celebrations and rites for bishops, priests, and deacons (who use a different stole because they wear it differently from priests). When wearing it, the priest (bishop or presbyter) lets it hang straight down 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.
