Рriests Stiharions

The undersacristy is the main element of the liturgical outfit of every priest. The priest puts it on over the undercassocks and under the robe. This element of vestments clothing has the right to be worn by a bishop or a priest during the liturgy and in special cases during the rites at pre-holiday matins or vespers.

That is why it is so important that the priest’s vestry is made of very high-quality material. It is best when it is light and airy, antistatic and made of natural fabric. Silk is often used for sewing undercoats. There is also a need for a chasuble made of viscose or strech, such chasubles are ideal for priests who often move, because they conduct the Divine Service in a different parish than their usual place of residence.

Stiharions (Undersacristy) — to buy in the RYZA workshop

It can be considered that the undersacristy is a type of surplice, but unlike the first one, it has narrow sleeves.

Surplice is the church vestment of Orthodox clergy and churchmen. Several types of surplices can be distinguished:

  • deacon’s (and church minister),
  • priest’s
  • bishop’s.

Surplice is a long garment with wide sleeves, slits from the armpits to the bottom, fastened with buttons. Surplice symbolizes the clothing of salvation. Stitching is usually done from light-colored fabric.
