Whitsuntide 2019 : 2

The Saint Bede Studio
The Studio recently completed this set of red vestments (shewn in the adjacent image) which forms part of a benefaction to the Church of Saint Thomas of Canterbury, Lewisham (Archdiocese of Sydney).  This historic church has recently undergone a comprehensive restoration and refurbishment, for which the Saint Bede Studio was a consultant.

These attractive vestments were made from a lovely ecclesiastical brocade in red and were lined in a  gold-coloured taffeta. The chasuble is in the Studio's Saint Austin style. The ornament is formed from one of the braids designed by the Studio, in colours of green and gold upon red, based on the work of AWN Pugin.
