Oval veil, 85x130 cm, cotton, natural

Product description

A veil is one of those quiet essential pieces that completes a medieval outfit. From Christian views on chastity, married women were expected to cover their hair, and the more elaborate the veil and its accompanying pins, the more clearly this emphasized the status of a noblewoman.

This veil has an oval shape, allowing the fabric to drape smoothly over the head and shoulders without the angular folds of a rectangular veil. With dimensions of 130 x 85 cm, there is plenty of room to pin the veil onto a coif, wear it under a diadem, or combine it with a wimple. The light, slightly transparent cotton muslin provides an airy, undyed appearance that suits various social standings.

A beautiful finishing piece for those who want to complete a medieval outfit. Suitable for re-enactment, living history, and LARP.
