We are pleased to commemorate the Feast of the Epiphany with this post featuring a set of festal vestments, made in the traditional Roman style. The vestments are made from a familiar tapestry fabric and fully-lined in crimson-red cloth. This chasuble is ornamented in the well-known Roman style, a variation of the TAU at the front and a column at the back, formed by a stripes of crimson-red brocade and an outlining burgundy and gold galloon.
The second image depicts the back of the chasuble, including an attractive applique of the Greek letters Kai and Rho. The first image depicts a section of the front of the chasuble.
The vestments of the Saint Bede Studio are beautiful in design, sound in construction and distinctive in appearance.
The chasuble is in the Studio's Saint Philip Neri style, which is the product of years of research into historical vestments and refinement of dimensions for comfortable use. The Studio revived this more ample 16th century style of the Roman chasuble in 2007 and since then we have made many of them. Beware of poorly-made imitations!
