Earlier this year, the Saint Bede Studio completed a precious mitre for a bishop in the United States. The mitre was made from a magnificent brocade in colours of old gold and deep red with figured ornament of brighter gold metallic thread. The mitre was lined in dupion silk in a subdued shade of gold. The brocade being so decorative, a simple braid was used to form the
circulus and
titulus ornament.
