NEJ Stevenson, the Midlands-based bespoke furniture maker, is accustomed to receiving calls to fill prestigious contracts and help high-profile clients. Earlier this year, the Nuncio commissioned the firm to produce six items for Pope Benedict XVI’s visit to Britain. The Holy Father stayed in the Apostolic Nunciature on the edge of Wimbledon Common.
The commissions included an altar, lectern, tabernacle stand, two server chairs and the celebrant’s chair which bore the Pope’s coat of arms etched into the glass panel.
