ARGENTIER DU ROI : Compte de l'Argenterie du Roy annee 1610: Rendus, par Me. Sacre du Roi Louis Treize. A Pierre Robin Marchand de Drap - et Jean Royer Marchand drapier la somme de 17316 - 17 - 69...pour les fournitures qu'ils ont faits pour ; Paris C. 1715 [Paris, c. 1715]. Folio, manuscript in ink, 25pp. plus one blank leaf, list of items, fabric and trimmings, for Louis XIII and his Peers at his Coronation, this then broken down under various headings according to the merchant or craftsman involved and priced, some slight fraying to some extreme outer margins, but not affecting written matter. Fair copy made, from the watermark, in Paris in around 1715. This would suggest that it may have been copied from the original 1610 accounts of the Keeper of the Royal Purse to be used as a guide for preparations for the Coronation of Louis XV (his grandfather Louis XIV died in the summer of 1715). The first list gives quantities and qualities of fabrics, colours given, crimson, white, cloth of silver etc. with details of what garment it it for and for whom. The cost of the fabrics total 17316-7-69. There is then a list made out to Jean Baron, Haberdasher for gold and silver braid and buttons etc, with details of the use to which they are to be put, this totaling 2215-15. The various lists continue for embroidery, specifying what in detail, ermine for trimmings, metals and jewels for crowns and diadems, lingerie, other headwear, aigrettes for decorations, robes, dalmatiques, most giving the name of the supplier. Bills for the tailor, carpet maker, gloves decorated with lace, wardrobes to carry the Kings robes safely to Rheims where the King was crowned and all other expenses for the Coronation, decorations for the procession, cathedral etc. Such detailed documents which demonstrate not only the sumptuousness of the garments, but the work involved but also the logistics of such an important state occasion and with costs must be scarce even in a relatively early copy.

Under "Gauntlets" Plate gauntlets replaced chain mail gauntlets worn over leather gloves. "In fact the oldest type of plate gauntlet on record, dating to the early 14th century, replaced the mail glove and was similar to the wide-cuffed leather gauntlet worn today by motorcyclists. It, too, was made of leather but covered with small riveted lames." The book goes on to discuss early 15th century articulated finger gauntlets, then the fact that mitten gauntlets became popular from early 15th to the first half of the 16th. They were always worn with a leather glove." An important variation to emerge during the third quarter of the 15th century was the gauntlet with a particularly long pointed cuff |

| Flury-Lemberg Flury-Lemberg, Mechthild a documentation of the textile department on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the Abegg Foundation_; Bern: Abegg-Stiftung, 1988. It's filled with pictures and drawings showing original articles and the steps taken to preserve them - which often means taking them apart to clean (giving good pattern examples - some are even drafted to [metric] scale). Lots of discussion of materials used. Articles include tapestries, flags, embroidery, garments (including knit gloves of the 15th century, if memory serves, and shoes with cork soles) a full Landesknecht uniform - the color pictures are glorious - 16th century shirts, and all kinds of neat stuff. This is a fun book, especially if you are interested in clothing construction. (17) TEXTILES Process, Material, Conservation, Restoration, Glossaries Foreign Publication 1274 |
