15th century doublet in damask

 An essential item in every medieval man's wardrobe!

 This model, with padded upper sleeve (Gippon à mahoitres' style), provided the fashionable silhouette in the second half of the 15th century - wide shoulders and narrow waist.

 The fabirc is a rare and expensive silk/wool  damask from Sudbury silk mills.

This usually retails at £70-100 per metre, I got lucky to get some as a bargain!

 Features:

* superb fabric wool/silk blend, with suitable woven pattern

* lined throughout with medium weight pink linen

*shoulder padding filled with light filling

* the eyelets are worked by hand with silk thread

 Options -

 *sleeve cuff is fashionably narrow, please make sure you you measure if you can get your hand through - you can request the sleeve to be opened, with a set of eyelets for points - easier to get on and off and still fashionably tigjht, just with dangling lace :-)
