Passiontide 2026 : 6

This post features a set of red vestments in the Studio's Saint Cuthbert style.  This chasuble is both long and wide and is especially designed to fold up beautifully when the arms of the celebrant are elevated. 

The vestments of the Saint Bede Studio are beautiful in design, sound in construction and distinctive in appearance.


The Saint Bede Studio


The Saint Cuthbert chasuble is notable for a steeply-angled Y-orphrey, which is especially effective when the ornament is formed from a narrow galloon.  This ornament replicates certain mediaeval chasubles which have survived and others depicted in manuscript illuminations.

Tasteful contemporary vestments are made by certain studios in Italy, France and Germany, but we also make them here in Australia at the Saint Bede Studio.  This set has a simple dignity and is made from high quality fabrics.

Crimson-red dupion silk is lined with a copper-coloured taffeta and is ornamented with one of the Studio's braids called Saxony, being knotwork in three colours.

Passiontide 2026 : 4

In this Passiontide, the Saint Bede Studio is pleased to present this set of vestments in a deep shade of red.  

This dignified set of vestments is in the Roman style, a particular variant we call Saint Martin, being a more ample cut of chasuble.


Passiontide vestments

The vestments were made from ecclesiastical brocade in a darker shade of red.  The ornament - in the Roman style - consists of a TAU at the front and a column at the back.  This ornament is formed from an ecclesiastical brocade in the colours of burgundy and old gold.  The effect is very solemn, which is more suited to the character of Passiontide than bright red vestments.

The ornament - in the Roman style - consists of a TAU at the front and a column at the back.  This ornament is formed from a damask in the colours of burgundy and old gold.  The effect is very solemn, which is more suited to the character of Passiontide than bright red vestments.
