Beau Veste 1009 – Pure Linen Cross & Fleur-de-Lis Embroidered Altar Cloth

Beautifully crafted by Beau Veste, the Style 1009 Altar Cloth combines the timeless beauty of genuine 100% pure linen with traditional Catholic liturgical embroidery. Featuring elegant white silk Latin crosses, delicate fleur-de-lis motifs, and a beautifully hand-scalloped border, this custom-sized altar cloth provides a dignified and traditional covering for church altars.

The beautifully embroidered front border features a repeating arrangement of Latin crosses separated by graceful fleur-de-lis designs. Each cross is framed by elegant white silk embroidery, while the scalloped edge creates a soft, decorative finish.

The subtle white-on-white appearance complements both traditional and contemporary Catholic church sanctuaries, providing beautiful religious ornamentation without overwhelming the natural simplicity of the altar.

Traditional Christian Symbolism

The cross is the central symbol of Christianity, representing the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, His victory over sin and death, and the hope of eternal salvation through His Resurrection.

The fleur-de-lis is a traditional decorative motif frequently found in Catholic art, sacred architecture, and liturgical furnishings. It is commonly associated with purity and the Blessed Virgin Mary, making it an especially fitting addition to the altar cloth's cross embroidery.

Together, these symbols create a meaningful design that reflects the sacred purpose of the altar and the celebration of the Holy Eucharist.

Premium 100% Pure Linen Fabric

Unlike polyester altar cloths, the Beau Veste 1009 is manufactured from 100% pure white linen, a traditional material long associated with Catholic altar linens.

The fabric features a 120-thread construction and 4¾-ounce weight, providing a beautiful combination of natural texture, substance, and traditional appearance.

The decorative white silk embroidery is complemented by a carefully hand-scalloped edge, creating a refined finish that highlights the natural beauty of the linen.

The embroidered border runs along one side of the altar cloth, typically positioned across the front of the altar. The design requires a minimum 6-inch front drop, making it suitable for altars where a shorter decorative drop is preferred.

Custom Sized for Your Altar

Every Beau Veste 1009 Altar Cloth can be custom cut and hemmed to accommodate the dimensions of your altar.

The pure linen fabric is manufactured in an overall width of 52 inches. Larger or unusual altar dimensions may require special construction, which will be reviewed when preparing your quotation.

To ensure a proper fit, please provide the following measurements:

• A – Altar Width: Actual front-to-back depth of the altar mensa.
• B – Front Drop: Desired length of fabric hanging over the front of the altar (minimum 6 inches).
• C – Altar Length: Actual side-to-side length of the altar mensa.
• D – Side Drops: Desired length of fabric hanging over the sides of the altar.
• E – Back Drop: Desired length of fabric hanging over the rear of the altar.

All measurements should be supplied in inches.

Our team will review your measurements and provide a custom quotation based on the amount of fabric required and any necessary hemming, cutouts, or finishing.

Because pure linen is a natural fabric, some shrinkage should be anticipated. Appropriate fabric allowances will be considered when preparing your quotation.
