April 2008

Slavin Studios was commissioned to produce 3 of Pope Benedict’s Papal seals to be used on 2 thrones at The Yonkers Seminary and one on his Knealer at Ground Zero prayer service.
The success of this project was matching the colors and exact design of the Papal seal. It started with reseasrching the design and its content. It’s reviewed with liturgical architectural studio, Renovata Studios.

Using hand building techniques, glaze testing, and a delicate firing schedule Brett managed to deleiver an excellant job and participate in an inspiring event in history.
