In this sacred Octave of Pentecost, we are pleased to present this image of a set of Gothic Revival vestments.
The set of vestments was made from ecclesiastical brocade in a brighter red and lined in a very muted shade of green.
The vestments were ornamented with a geometric braid unique to the Saint Bede Studio, which we call Lux aeterna. It is a geometric braid after the style of AWB Pugin and is woven in the colours of ash-grey upon black.
The work of the Saint Bede Studio is distinctive for its artistic qualities and the pains taken with every detail, such as the alignment of ornaments. Even a simple vestment like this is striking for its combination of colours and fine workmanship.
