Liturgical Fabrics

Liturgical fabrics. Just the mere thought of the word forms vivid images in our minds of rich, elegant, and often luxurious textiles use for the creation of church vestments and altar frontals. These special Ecclesiastical Fabrics, used for the making of pastoral stoles and chasubles, copes and miters, dalmatics and tunics, are often woven in intricate patterns, using special yarns of silks, rayons, and even threads of gold and silver.

We look at a stunning Liturgical Fabric, such as this pattern called Wakefield, and what does one see?  A fabric made with black and gold threads, with variations in the weave, which creates different textures on the surface. The pattern is complex with variations of a large ogee motif, surrounded by a floral border.
