Medieval Dagged Gugel

Medieval Dugged Gugel:
The Gugel was a popular hood style worn throughout the Middle Ages, particularly from the 12th to the 15th centuries. This specific version features several characteristic elements:

Integrated Hood and Mantle: The piece combines a close-fitting hood with a wide circular cape (mantle) that covers the shoulders and upper chest for warmth.

Dagged Edges: The bottom of the mantle is cut into decorative, rounded tabs known as “dagging.” This was a high-fashion statement in the 14th century, often used to show off the quality of the fabric.

Contrast Stitching: It features a white or light-colored decorative embroidery or top-stitching that follows the “scalloped” pattern around the face and the hem, providing a sharp contrast against the dark wool-like fabric.

Fabric: It appears to be made of a heavy, felted wool with a lighter-colored lining (likely linen), which would have provided excellent protection against wind and rain.

Note: Wool Color may slightly vary from pictures because of available stock. Your display screen setting may show you little different color.
