Hood, Dagged edge, late 14th-early 15th Century, Wool

A pull-over hood with short mantle, shoulder gusset, and a fashionably long liripipe or tail, based on the Herjolfsnes and London finds. This is a Nockert, Type 3 / Norlund Type II hood, for those familiar with that typology.

Hoods with plain, dagged or cut edges were practical ourdoor wear as well as being a fashion essential. They are well documented in images of the period such as ‘The Book of the Hunt' by Gaston Phoebus, the 'Tres Riches Heures' of the Duc de Berry, and countless illuminations and marginalia.

Extended face edge can be turned back or pulled forward for cold weather wear. Perfect for wear with any of our 14th C. or early 15th C. garments.
