Mirella Medieval Velvet Hood, Red
This velvet hood or gugel is made of 100% velvet cotton and lined with a lightweight cotton fabric. The hood ends at a long breakpoint or tail (also called a liripipe) and is cut wider around the head so it can be pulled deep into the face or bent if necessary. Closes with small round buttons to prevent the user from spoiling the hairstyle by putting it on or removing it. Usually, however, only one or two buttons were attached to the neck, or the gugel was used completely open.
