    This hood is characteristic of the 15th century for women. It is worn open, and can be pinned on the dress to help with the maintenance.
    It has a long cornette which can be used as a scarf against the cold and tied around the head (see photo of green hood).
    It is often worn with the edge of the visor folded down around the head. In the many illuminations depicting it, the lining (if there is one) is the same colour as the wool.

    Possible options:
    - without lining (hand-sewn)
    - with linen, wool or silk lining
    - visible hand seams
