In the Catholic Church, priests act as a liaison between the people and God, saying prayers and asking petitions on our behalf. This privileged position can be traced back to the original twelve apostles, the original ministers of the Catholic Church. During worship celebrations, a priest wears special liturgical garments to denote his position. This exquisite white chasuble is a stunning liturgical vestment that is truly a work of art. This chasuble comes to St. Patrick's Guild from the master craftsmen at Slabbinck in Bruges, Belgium. This white chasuble is made with Slabbinck's distinctive Dupion Fabric, a beautiful cloth woven with a knotted texture. This white chasuble is elevated to a work of liturgical art by the inclusion of a hand-embroidered orphrey featuring a chalice motif. Embroidered in Slabbinck's Regina fabric, this multicolored brocade orphrey is wonderfully intricate, adding a humble grace to this liturgical vestment. Slabbinck has been handcrafting unique liturgical vestments for over one hundred years, and St. Patrick's Guild is proud to distribute their fine product as one of their select Master Dealers. Truly a work of liturgical art, this white chasuble with hand-embroidered orphrey will add elegance and grace to any worship celebration.
Our white chasuble with blue orphrey measures 59 inches wide by 53 inches long and is unlined. A matching inside stole is included. This chasuble is available in other colors and can be custom made to fit any measurements. Please call our friendly church supplies department at 1-800-652-9767 with questions about this or any of our other fine liturgical vestments.
