Roman Purple Cope & Stole Set

This set consists of a Cope and Stole. The material of the garments is made of Church Damask fabric with Cross designs and the Orphreys are made of high quality Silk fabric with Crown of Thorn Embroidery. The stole comes with a hand embroidered Cross with crown of thorn Embroidery at the bottom.

• Height of the Cope: 54 inches (138 cm) from neck to bottom (62 inches from shoulder to bottom)
• Stole: 54 inches from shoulder to bottom (108 inches from end to end)

LINING: The Copes is available as lined and unlined.

• LINED: The interior of the cope is lined with matching Satin Fabric. The lining makes the cope a bit heavier and is recommended in Cold Climate areas or where the service is held in closed air-conditioned areas.
• UNLINED: There is no lining for the cope and this makes the cope lighter compared to the lined ones. This is best recommended in warm - hot climatic areas.

Cope: (known in Latin as pluviale (rain coat) or cappa (cape)) is a liturgical vestment, more precisely a long mantle or cloak, open in front and fastened at the breast with a band or clasp. It may be of any liturgical colour. (source: www.newadvent.org)
