Epitrachelion
The ''epitrachelion'' ( "around the neck"; Slavic: Епитрахиль, ''epitrachil''; often called simply a ''stole'' in casual English-language usage) is the liturgical vestment worn by priests and bishops of the Orthodox Church and Eastern Catholic Churches as the symbol of their priesthood, corresponding to the Western stole. It is essentially the ''orarion'' adapted for priests and bishops, worn around the neck with the two ends hanging down equally in front (more or less to the ankle) and with the two adjacent sides sewn or buttoned together up the center, leaving enough space through which to place the head. In practice, the ''epitrachelion'' is made to be worn only this way, tailored to lie flat around the neck, and is never actually unfastened. The portion hanging down in front is sometimes even a solid piece of fabric. It is usually made of brocade with seven embroidered or appliquéd crosses, one at the back of the neck and three down each side.
The priest wears the ''epitrachelion'' whenever serving as a priest (as opposed to simply attending a service). For some services, ''e.g.'' vespers or matins, he wears the ''epitrachelion'' by itself. When he is fully vested for the Divine Liturgy, he wears the ''epitrachelion'' over the ''sticharion'' and under the ''zone'' and the ''phelonion''. If a priest is simply attending a service, he wears no vestments, but will put on his ''epitrachelion'' (and often his ''epimanikia'') before receiving the Eucharist.
When the bishop is fully vested he wears the ''epitrachelion'' over the ''sticharion'' and under the zone, the ''sakkos'' and the ''omophorion''.
The Syriac Orthodox ''hamnikho'' (literally 'necklace') and the Armenian Orthodox ''urār'' are worn in a similar fashion.
