Description of the Product

The use of a chaperon began before the 1200’s, as covering your head was very important during the Middle Ages. Hoods were used by men and women alike, and of all classes, especially in Northern Europe. These hoods came in all types: long or short, pull-over or open- fronted. The edge of the cape was often trimmed for decorative effect. The nobility wore the hoods too, but theirs were naturally distinguished by the luxuriousness of the fabrics and the decorations used.

The "cappa" or chaperon, is a one-piece hood with a short cape over the shoulders, put on by pulling over the head. Wool ones were used in cold weather, and lighter ones for summer while pieces made of leather offered protection from rain and wind. The hood could be pulled off the head to hang behind, leaving the short cape round the neck and shoulders. The hood could be loose at the back, and sometimes ended in a tail that came to a point. The most extreme version of this style, the liripipe, was popular from the mid-14th to the end of the 15th century.  The long extension could be worn hanging down or wrapped around the head or the neck.

  • Available in brown, black, red and green
  • Available in sizes XXS, S/M and L/XL. Size XXS is mainly suitable for children

Tilasin keskiaikaisen hupun. 100% puuvillaa, joten voi käsitellä kosteussuoja-aineella. Vaivatonta kaupankäyntiä.

Sain kaksi muistikirjaa ja kalligrafiasetin setin 25-vuotis lahjaksi rakkaaltani. Ne ovat upeita! Olen saanut valtavasti kyselyitä muistikirjan alkuperästä ja kehunut Rautaporttia laadukkaasta käsityöstä. Tuotteista huokuu estetiikka, laatu ja taianomaisuus. Täydellinen lahja historia-/fantasianörtille!

I'm very happy to shop and cooperate with this company. The customer service is perfect, fast and friendly. The products have good quality, good prices and are exactly what you see at the pictures, no fake photos. I'm just received a package 📦 today, and it takes 7 days from Finland 🇫🇮 to come to Greece 🇬🇷. Very fast and easy!!

Siis aivan huikea!! Tilasin pari tuotetta aamupäivällä, ja 24h myöhemmin ne olivat jo noudettavissa postin automaatista! Kaikki sujui kuin rasvattu, ei ole mitään moitittavaa. Vaatteet olivat juuri sitä mitä tilasin, ja koot pitävät kyllä todella hyvin paikkansa! 😍 Aion ehdottomasti tilata vielä uudestaan, ja ehdottomasti suosittelen kaikille!
