Antique catholic priest's chasuble, maniple, stole and burse set.
Purple brocade with incredible embroidered trims. IHS embroidery at the back.
The embroideries are made mostly with cotton threads on black cotton. There are details in metallic threads.
It is a stunning set but it has been heavily worn and shows signs of age.
The purple materials have discoloured and faded in large places inside and outside the chasuble. The colour of the stole and maniple has faded too. Some embroideries have also faded.
The embroidered ribbons of the chasuble are very worn in places as seen in some photographs. The threads are completely broken in places and the black cotton torn. It is more visible on the chasuble but damages are visible on all pieces.
Some small parts are getting unstitched too.
The white cotton on the stole has yellow discolouration and staining from use. The stole is quite worn around the neck.
Other small imperfections such as small stains, small repairs or holes are to be expected.
Wear at the corners of the burse, very worn trims on the maniple, loose threads and colour fade.
Chasuble length from neck down (at the back) approx. 100 cm / 39.37 inches.
The pictures are part of the description.
 
Import duties and taxes are the buyer's responsibility.
