Paramentenwerkstatt

Paraments

Our profession is paramentics. We have more than 150 years of professional experience for the creation of ornamental altar or pulpit hangings, chalice cloths and other liturgical textiles of utility. This also includes robes, stoles and gowns for pastors, deacons, lectors and choristers. We unite art and craftsmanship at the highest level, which positions us among the best in our field.

Paraments are an essential part of the worship liturgy. Together with the altar and the pulpit they ornament the central places of Christian proclamation. They veil and reveal at the same time. They function as an eye-catcher, even though they are meant to point to something beyond themselves – to the revelation and proclamation of the risen Christ!

However, paraments are never ready-made, but always unique. They have to integrate themselves into the ecclesiastical space in question, its existing decoration and lighting conditions. And, of course, they are also always an expression of the local congregation's understanding of faith. That is why, for us, the manufacture of a parament is a collaborate project. Your given conditions and our expertise guarantee the uniqueness of each project.
