Vestments for Lent 2025 : 8

Violet vestments
In this Holy Season of Lent, we are pleased to make a further presentation of a set of vestments in a distinctive decorative scheme.  The vestments are constructed from ecclesiastical brocade in a darker shade of violet.  

The braid used to ornament these vestments is called Saint Norbert, a new braid in the Studio's range of unique braids.  This orphrey braid, in colours of slate grey, black and white, was specifically designed for use with violet or black vestments.

These vestments are a variation on the Gothic Revival style, which we call Saint Austin.  The lining of these vestments is of taffeta in a slate-grey colour, a subdued blue.  Perhaps it may be noted that these Lenten vestments do not incorporate any trace of gold ornament.

The vestments of the Saint Bede Studio are beautiful in design, sound in construction and distinctive in appearance.
