the Thérèse - Classic Deacon Stole
the Thérèse - Classic Deacon Stole
Named for St. Thérèse of Lisieux, the patron saint of florists and missionaries. This lovely stole is made with white dupioni silk with beautiful floral details meticulously hand stitched into place with silk thread. The Thérèse is a reminder that no matter where the call of God leads, there is always new life to witness and celebrate.
The Classic Deacon Stole is a beautifully cut stole that is 3” wide at the top and has ends that taper slightly to 4” wide. It sits smoothly on the shoulder and conforms easily to any shoulder size.
(Kindly note: I do not have a physical Thérèse Classic Deacon Stole to show yet, but please refer to the drawing to see what the design would look like. This is a re-imagined design based on the Priest Stole version of the Thérèse.)
Measurements and Customization Options
Measurements for the Classic Deacon Stole
There are two measurements needed for the Classic Deacon Stole:
1. the hip-to-hip cross-body measure
2. the hip length measure
The hip-to-hip, cross-body measure
Measuring over your left shoulder, have the tape meet at the point you want your stole to meet and make note of the measurement. (The example measurement is 50")
