Passiontide 2017

The Saint Bede Studio recently completed a set of vestments for a young priest of the Archdiocese of Saint Louis, USA.

These were vestments in the Saint Martin style: very ample.  The vestments were made from a purple ecclesiastical brocade and lined in a deep red shade of taffeta. They are ornamented with a narrow braid in colours of Royal Blue, red, gold and white. The distinctive arrangement of the braids is derived from the chasuble of Saint Thomas Becket at Sens Cathedral.
