The Month of the Holy Souls 2026 : 3

Black vestments
During this, the Month of the Holy Souls, the Saint Bede Studio is pleased to present sets of black vestments completed for our customers.  

This set of vestments was made according to the most ancient form of the chasuble, sometimes called the conical form.  It is quite different from the Gothic Revival chasuble in that its shoulder seams are steeply sloped and very long indeed.  It resembles the shape of a cope, but not open at the front.

The Saint Bede Studio : vestments made by Catholics for Catholics.

These vestments were ornamented very simply and in a colour scheme of silver and black.  The chasuble's orphrey was formed from a narrow galloon in silver and grey, whilst the chasuble's lining was formed from a silvery-grey taffeta.
