There is a difference in this particular set of vestments, since they are made from a vibrant shade of green brocade.
The Gothic-style ornament is formed from the Studio's Saint Chad orphrey braid, which is based on braid designed by the Gothic Revival luminary AWN Pugin. A galloon of red and gold finishes-off the vestments nicely.

In this post is depicted a dalmatic in a lovely shade of green ecclesiastical brocade. In this instance, the choice was made to ornament the dalmatic with a galloon in colours of burgundy and gold.

I have the pleasure of sharing this image with readers. It was a portrait of the late Bishop Elliott entered amongst others for the Archibald Prize (Australia) in 2010.
It reveals a side of the Bishop known well to those who visited him at his residence : his love of cats.
May his soul, and the souls of all the Faithful Departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
On this Feast of the Transfiguration, we share with readers today's sad news of the death of the Most Reverend Peter Elliott, retired auxiliary bishop of Melbourne. He was 81 years old.

The Bishop pictured in his private oratory. |
The late bishop was a pastor of renowned orthodoxy, a gentleman of great wit, and a well-known liturgical scholar. He was also a great friend of the Saint Bede Studio.
His last correspondence with the Studio was on the exciting night (Australian time) when the new Pope, Leo XIV, presented himself.
Eternal Rest grant unto him, O Lord, with your saints forever, for you are merciful.
The chasuble is in the Studio's Borromeon 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!
