Why Our Stoles Stand Out?
Why Our Stoles Stand Out?
Why Our Stoles Stand Out?: When it comes to quality and craftsmanship, few companies globally can match the excellence of our stoles. Many competitors rely on cheap polyester fabrics, mass-produced in overseas factories by underpaid workers. These stoles are often made using glues and the “pillowcase” sewing method, where the fabric is sewn inside out, then flipped right side out, and the bottom edge is stitched closed. This method compromises durability and quality. (We’ve seen some seriously sad excuses for stoles over the years.)
Handmade Brocade Stoles
In stark contrast, our stoles are crafted with the highest quality brocades. They are never pillow-cased, and we never use glues or adhesives. Our feature a piece of canvas between the brocade and lining, providing additional rigidity and a more tailored look. Our brocades are sourced from a small, private weaver in Europe who has been manufacturing beautiful fabrics for decades. Each stole is meticulously sewn by hand with love, care, and attention to detail by talented seamstresses here in the United States. Our dedication to quality is evident in every stitch.
Honoring the Altar Through Artistry
Even companies considered to be at the upper end of the vestment-making world can’t match our quality, despite charging two to three times more. But money does not always buy quality, just brand recognition. For us, it’s about the love of art and beauty and bringing honor back to the altar of God.
We have one mission and one mission only: bringing beauty back into the worship space and helping churches worship beautifully. Luckily, we’re not alone in this mission. We’re slowly building a small army of very talented DIY seamstresses who are just as passionate as we are about bringing beauty into the worship space and ending the use of low-quality, mass-market vestments that churches have been accustomed to for far too long.
