Set of white linen liturgical cloths having been used at the altar during the celebration of masses.
We call liturgical cloths or sacred cloths, the cloths which can touch the Holy Species during the communion. The sacred cloths (corporal, purificatory, manuterge, pale) are generally made of linen, but they can be hemp or cotton. They must be of high quality, made with care. They are embroidered with a cross to signify that their use is exclusively reserved for Mass. THE PRICE IS FOR THE SET.
