Embroidered Gothic Dalmatic in Green Gothic with Cormaline Velvet Orphreys
Embroidered Gothic Dalmatic in Green Gothic with Cormaline Velvet Orphreys
Gothic Shape in Watts Green 'Gothic' silk damask, with traditional arrangement of contrasting orphreys in Cornaline 'silk velvet' and trimmed with ½" Old Gold 'Diamond & Lay' braid and Gold metallic pennants, lined with Sarum Red cotton sateen. The Gold bullion embroidery featured on the cross orphreys of this Dalmatic was especially designed for the customer, and is not included in the above price. Should you wish to replicate this design, please contact us directly for an estimate.
Watts & Co. would also be delighted to discuss any other similar embroidery designs. This item can also be made in other fabrics - please see the selection of fabrics in the Textiles & Trimmings section of this website. (The price will depend on the fabric used for the main body of the Dalmatic.) Like all our made-to-order Dalmatics this vestment is hand-made in our workrooms in Westminster, London by our team of expert seamstresses.
Our Dalmatics are all fully lined with cotton sateen. The standard length of our Gothic shape Dalmatic is 43", this can be varied if necessary (usually at no additional charge). Please supply the full height (crown of head to the floor) and chest measurement of the wearer with your order if you would like us to make the Dalmatic to your required size rather than to the standard size.
