Choose from our standard line of tradtional, overlay & deacon stoles or create a custom stole
Function: noun
STOLE ..... Etymology: Middle English, from Old English, from Latin stola, from Greek stolE equipment, robe, from stellein to set up, make ready
Date: before 12th century;
A liturgical vestment composed of a strip of material from two to four inches wide and about eighty inches long. It has either a uniform width throughout, or is somewhat narrower towards the middle, widening at the ends in the shape of a trapezium or spade. A small cross is generally sewed or embroidered on the stole at both ends and in the middle; the cross, however, is prescribed only for the middle, where the priest kisses the stole before putting it on. There are no express precepts concerning the material of the stole, but silk, or at least a halfsilk fabric, is most appropriate. Stoles for festivals are generally ornamented with embroidery, especially what are called vesper stoles".
