Gothic stole "Our Lady of Perpetual Help" SH26-B

Beautiful stole.

I received my ordination. The Gothic Stole "Our Lady of Perpetual Help" is my first stole. I feel honored to own it. It is a true work of sacred art. The detail is impeccable. The fabric, workmanship, fit and overall quality are exceptional. The attention to detail is a labor of love. The customer service was excellent. The shipping was expeditious. This purchase was very pleasant experience.

Giving these to the ordinandi, I was amazed at the detail. Certainly faces and embroidery can be a problem, but it looks nice. It is magnificently decorated the whole way down. These stoles have a bit of heft to them, certainly from the threading but also from the fabric. This is by no means a negative. Some stoles are so light-weight that they just flop all over the place, especially in the wind or a slight breeze. These are much more likely to stay in place. It also reminds the priest that he's wearing something important...not just an accessory. For good aesthetics, I would have desired the image of our Lady and the Christ Child to be on the other side facing in towards the chest or to be mirrored; it's just a small matter of composure.

Beautifully done stole with quality embroidery. A must have for all Our Lady of Perpetual Help devotees.
