We are pleased to include here testimonials from some customers of the Saint Bede Studio:

The Saint Bede Studio offers a customised service which is unique. The Studio not only draws on a very wide and diverse range of damasks, brocades and other fabrics, as well as braids, but also works closely with the customer in designing the desired vestment. It is a sheer delight to be working with someone who has a deep liturgical understanding, and whose knowledge of the history of vestments and their design is matched by a capacity to inform new designs with traditional principles. And all of these, at a very reasonable price!

Our parish is gradually replacing vestments that have been used for decades. We wanted to replace them with vestments that would match their quality and see use for decades into the future. We are very pleased with the Green Solemn Mass set constructed for us by Saint Bede Studio. These vestments are of striking beauty and very well made. We are very pleased and hope to purchase more Solemn Mass sets from this stellar liturgical artist.

Our ordinary commissioned a special mitre which was designed and executed by St. Bede Studio. The quality of fabric and craftsmanship was outstanding and we look forward to future commissions. Many blessings on your apostolate!

I write to you to express my total satisfaction with the vestments which arrived last week and which we have used in the Liturgy. Like the others, they are exquisite! After the Liturgy our old seamstress who has taken care of our vestments over the years remarked on the quality of the materials, the creative use of orphreys, and the fine craftsmanship of the stitching. We are ready to place our 5th order with the Saint Bede Studio, knowing that you provide good work and at a fair price. Thank you again!

I discovered The Saint Bede Studio when I needed a mitre made on very short notice. Store-bought was out of the question, but the price had to be reasonable. The Saint Bede Studio graciously agreed to do the work in the limited time available. Finding a hint in my e-mail, a design was suggested which it was thought we would like. The mitre arrived in the United States on time; it was well-made; and everyone agreed that it was the new bishop's most beautiful vestment. I highly recommend The Saint Bede Studio for dignified, attractive, and affordable vestments.

I am so very much impressed with the quality of workmanship and design of the beautiful vestments that have been so lovingly created by Michael Sternbeck and Saint Bede Studio. The precision and excellent fit are in a word, "exquisite". I cannot recommend highly enough this young man's talented artistic work to you. If you need vestments that you would be blessed to wear for the Sacred Liturgy, please contact Michael. I am sure that I will do so again very soon.
