Set of priestly stole and corporal case. Christian liturgical art. 19th century - Silk or satin fabric, embroidered with gold thread, cords, and a rigid textile structure. Stole measures 115 x 14 cm; collette or bursa 23 x 23 cm. This Christian liturgical set consists of a long priestly stole and a corporal case. The stole is made of double-layered white silk or satin fabric, ornamented with three gold-embroidered crosses and finished at the ends with cord fringe. The collette or bursa has a semi-open, rigid structure, composed of two parts joined by ribbon, and was intended to hold and carry the corporal upon which the paten and chalice were placed before and after Mass. Its center features a cross pattée embroidered with gold thread and a gold border that defines the perimeter. The combination of white fabric, gold embroidery, and cruciform symbolism reflects the ceremonial and devotional character of 19th-century liturgical objects.
