Victorian Black Pleated Lace Quilted Capelene CapeThis Victorian cape, or mantle, is a beautiful example of a mourning capelene, worn for a grieving period. It is made of black silk and trimmed with gorgeous pleated lace. It closes in the front with hidden hooks and eyes. The back is shorter than the front to accommodate a bustle. The long sections in front are called lappets. The cape is warm because it is quilted inside, as you can see in the pictures. It's in extremely good condition. Measurements
