Festal Vestments : our unique braids : 5

The Saint Bede Studio


The vestments in this post were made from a silk brocade in a rich shade of gold and fully-lined in crimson taffeta.  

The vestments are ornamented with one of the Studio's unique braids, called Saint Columba.  It features knotwork derived from ancient Anglo-celtic exemplars.    

One image also shews an example of the many and varied fringes used by the Studio at the ends of stoles and maniples.  In this instance, a substantial fringe in colours of rust-red and old gold harmonises both with the braid and the brocade.
