Chasuble with hand-embroidered stole (item 7420)
Chasuble made of a soft and silky viscose wool fabric.
Unlike wool, viscose is an artificial fiber. Also called “artificial silk”, it creates fluid and natural draperies. It is a fabric with easy maintenance, which does not shrink after washing in water but which needs a good post-wash ironing to regain its original appearance of softness and fluidity. Viscose is an ideal fabric for making garments withsoft and flowing lines, characteristic of priestly chasubles.
The wool-viscose fabric is composed of 70% wool, 25% viscose, 3% polyester, and 2% acrylic.
