Vestments for Pentecost : 5

As Pentecost approaches, and especially on this Feast of the Confessor, Saint Philip Neri, we are pleased to present this set of red vestments made by the Saint Bede Studio.

Saint Philip Neri


This set of vestments is in the style we call Saint Philip Neri.  It is the Studio's interpretation of the 16th form of "Roman" chasuble often depicted in paintings of Saint Philip.  The chasuble is long but not  wide.  As made by the Saint Bede Studio, this style of vestment is extremely comfortable to wear.

This particular set was made from an ecclesiastical brocade in shades of red and straw-gold.  The vestments were lined in taffeta in a shade of red.  The result is a flame-like effect, particularly suited to Masses of the Holy Spirit.  A galloon in red and gold was used to form the ornament in the Roman style.
