These vestments have been made from a Roman purple brocade, ornamented with another brocade in silver and black and outlined with a narrow galloon. To increase the penitential visual effect, a chevron in black silk was added to the chasubles.
An ample dalmatic is shewn in the adjacent photograph.
Parts of the set were completed in 2011, whilst a further two chasubles were prepared for Ash Wednesday 2012 and 2013.
