Saint Birgita's Cap: Authentic 100% Linen Medieval Headdress for Reenactments and Living History
Material:
100% Baltic Linen 150 GSM
The "Saint Birgita Cap" is inspired by the traditional headdresses depicted in the Maciejowski Bible (also known as the Morgan Bible or the Crusader Bible), a lavishly illustrated 13th-century manuscript commissioned by King Louis IX of France. This celebrated manuscript is a window into medieval life and fashion, showcasing the modest and functional headdresses commonly worn by women in medieval Europe.
Made from 100% Baltic linen weighing 150 GSM (grams per square meter, which indicates the weight of the fabric), this cap offers a lightweight and breathable option ideal for historical reenactments, LARP, SCA, and living history events. Reflecting the style of Maciejowski's Bible caps, this headpiece was designed to modestly cover the hair and provide a practical layer under other head coverings, such as veils or hoods.
In medieval society, these types of caps were valued for both their simplicity and utility, and were often worn by women of all social classes. The close-fitting design keeps hair covered during everyday activities and work, while the soft linen ensures comfort during extended events. This cap, which can be worn alone or as a layer under other garments, adds historical authenticity to any medieval or early Renaissance outfit.
Featuring a one-size-fits-all design, the Saint Birgita cap is a versatile piece that fits a variety of characters and roles, whether portraying a medieval peasant woman, a craftsman's wife, or a member of a noble house. This cap brings to life the modest elegance of medieval headdresses, offering a practical yet historically accurate accessory for any reenactor's wardrobe.
