Priestly Ordinations 2021 : 4

Saint Philip Neri
In this post, we are pleased to describe a set of vestments in the Saint Bede Studio's Saint Philip Neri style, which was commissioned by an ordinand from the Philippines.

These vestments were made from a lightweight silk
damask in lovely shades of ivory and straw-yellow.  The ornament, in the Roman manner, was formed from a damask in colours deep red and old gold, trimmed with one of the Studio's unique galloons.  The lining of these vestments was formed from a deep red shade of taffeta.

Please pray for all newly-ordained priests.

Borromeon vestments

In this post, we are pleased to describe a set of vestments in the Saint Bede Studio's Borromeon style, which was commissioned by an ordinand from the United States.

These vestments were made from a damask in lovely shades of ivory and straw-yellow.  The ornament, in the Roman manner, was formed from a damask in colours deep red and old gold, trimmed with one of the Studio's unique galloons.  The lining of these vestments was formed from a deep red shade of taffeta.

Greetings to all readers for 2022



This lovely drawing by the English artist Eric Gill depicts an Angel visiting the Child Jesus and his Mother, Mary.  Mary is sitting knitting.  Around the perimeter is written (in Latin) "Let all things praise God, who created (them)."

The ingenious part of this drawing is that by enclosing the figures within a circle, Gill also depicts the planet Earth, with its masses of land and oceans.  The Mother and Child are in the world, yet all things are under their care.  The angels watch over us.

May the Christ-child and his Blessed Mother bring peace and health in mind and body to our troubled world.

The Saint Bede Studio wishes all its customers and readers every Blessing in 2022.
