Classic
Snood or Hairnet.....$5 each, or 3 for $13
This
beautiful woven snood is the perfect way to keep your hair looking
tidy for the whole day while complimenting your favourite Medieval
or Renaissance gown. This snood is a woven hairnet that will
adjust itself to hold any amount of hair from quite short to
medium length.
Hairnets
were worn by many classes of women for much of the High Middle
Ages and Renaissance and authentic examples are on display on
the Museum of London and the British Museum. This machine woven
snood is made from top quality acrylic fibres for long wear
and is elasticized to fit most heads. While more robust than
medieval examples, this quality snood will give long wear while
approximating an authentic medieval look.
Either
worn under a veil or on its own, this snood will cover even
the most modern of hairstyles and give an air of authenticity
and class to even your finest garb. A perfect finishing touch!
Available
in purple, black, green, blue, white or red.
