Embroidered purple Kir for casket is a traditional element of liturgical textiles, used during Catholic funeral ceremonies. Its purpose is to dignify the casket during the Funeral Mass and farewell rites, while also expressing the prayerful character of the ceremony.
Purple in liturgy symbolizes penance, reflection, and anticipation of resurrection, thus the Kir in this color perfectly aligns with the Christian experience of death as a transition to eternal life. The entire piece is adorned with embroidered black bands, which introduce visual order and emphasize the solemnity of the moment, without distracting from the essence of the liturgy.
The product is made from high-quality fabric, a blend of natural and synthetic fibers. The material is soft, lightweight, and pleasant to the touch, while also characterized by high durability, wrinkle resistance, and ease of care. The Kir drapes beautifully, maintaining an aesthetic appearance throughout the ceremony.
Dimensions 3.30 m × 2.10 m ensure that the cover fits most standard caskets used in funeral liturgy. The Kir harmoniously complements other church textiles used during mourning ceremonies, creating a coherent and dignified setting for the rites.
Embroidered purple Kir for casket is intended for parishes, chapels, and funeral homes as a permanent element of liturgical equipment.
Urbanowicz Haft Polska – we create liturgical textiles that, in moments of farewell, combine aesthetics, symbolism, and deep respect for the spiritual dimension of the rites.
