The Feast of Saint Francis Xavier

On this Festal day, we are pleased to present a set of vestments in the style described as Saint Philip Neri.  It is a style which would have been very familiar to Saint Francis Xavier.

The Saint Bede Studio

This set is a modern interpretation of the chasubles illustrated in various depictions of Saint Philip.  Although ornamented in the Roman manner, this is an earlier and more traditional form of "the Roman chasuble" being both wider and longer.  As made by the Saint Bede Studio, this style of vestment is very comfortable to wear.

This particular set was made from an ecclesiastical brocade in a shade of ivory, it was lined in a golden taffeta and ornamented simply with an outlining golden galloon.

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