Festal Vestments : 3

Saint Martin chasuble

In this Paschal Season, we are pleased to present some vestments in a variety of styles, made for Festal days but which would also be suitable throughout the Eastertide.  

The vestments illustrated above the Saint Bede Studio calls The Saint Martin chasuble.  It is the Studio's own contemporary interpretation of the ancient form of Roman vestment. It is extremely ample : long and wide. The ornamentation of these vestments is usually arranged in the Roman style, being a Tau ornament in the front and a column at the back, formed from braids and contrasting damask. The vestments can be made in a variety of qualities of fabric in all the Liturgical colours, and can be lined or unlined.

This particular set is made from a European brocade in the colour of ivory and lined in red taffeta.  It is ornamented in the Roman manner with a golden ecclesiastical brocade, outlined with a simple galloon in red and gold.
