The Season Per Annum : 22

Green vestments
In this post, we are pleased to present another set of green vestments, in the Gothic Revival style.

The set is constructed from ecclesiastical brocade with figured Crosses and quatrefoils in a bright shade green upon a black background.  This gives the set the appearance of a quite dark green. The vestments are lined in a brighter shade of green taffeta. 

The ornament is in the English style and is formed from an orphrey braid in colours of green, white and straw-gold upon red.  This braid, named ChiRho, is one of the unique braids of the Saint Bede Studio.  

This beautiful and distinctive set of vestments was commissioned by a bishop in the United States.

Festal Vestments


Festal vestments

The vestments in this post were made for an ordinand in Australia.  They were constructed from a silk brocade in a rich shade of gold and fully-lined in crimson taffeta.  

The vestments are ornamented with one of the Studio's unique braids, called Saint Columba.  It features knotwork derived from ancient Anglo-Celtic exemplars.

The Season Per Annum : 21

In this post, we are pleased to present a glimpse of another set of green vestments, in the Gothic Revival style.

Green Gothic vestments
The Saint Bede Studio has made up this set many times over the years, it being an adaptation of a design for green vestments by AWN Pugin in the Gothic Revival style.

The set is constructed from ecclesiastical brocade with figured Crosses and quatrefoils in a bright shade green upon a black background.  This gives the set the appearance of a quite dark green. The vestments are lined in a shade of crimson-red taffeta. 

The ornament is in the English style and is formed from an orphrey braid in colours of straw-gold upon red.  This unique braid was designed by the Studio many years ago, based directly on the ornamental work of Pugin.  

This beautiful and distinctive set of vestments was commissioned by an ordinand in the USA.

The Season Per Annum : 20

In this post, we are pleased to present a glimpse of another set of green vestments, in the 16th century Roman style.

Green vestments
This set is constructed from ecclesiastical brocade in a bright shade green and is lined in a delightful shade of taffeta which might be described as "Peacock Blue". 

The ornament is in the French style consisting of a TAU on the front of the chasuble and Cross on the back.  This ornament is formed from a shade of blue silk (matching the colour of the lining), outlined in a narrow galloon in colour of black and straw-gold.  

This beautiful and distinctive set of vestments was commissioned by a Catholic Cathedral in the USA.

The Season Per Annum : 19

The Saint Bede Studio
In this post is illustrated a set of green vestments in a design now familiar to readers of the Saint Bede Studio blog.

There is a difference in this particular set of vestments, since they are made from a vibrant shade of green brocade.  

The Gothic-style ornament is formed from the Studio's Saint Chad orphrey braid, which is based on braid designed by the Gothic Revival luminary AWN Pugin.  A galloon of red and gold finishes-off the vestments nicely. 

These vestments are in one of our Gothic Revival styles which we call Saint Benet.  The chasuble and accessories were lined in a muted shade of gold taffeta.
