The chasuble is the outermost liturgical vestment worn by priests and bishops during Mass. Originating from the Roman paenula, it evolved into a distinct Christian vestment by the Middle Ages, symbolizing the yoke of Christ and the priest’s role as a mediator. Typically made from luxurious fabrics, the chasuble’s design and color vary according to liturgical traditions and the Church calendar. Symbolically, it represents charity, God’s grace, and the priest’s role in offering the Eucharist.
