Noble men and the ladies of the court wore necklaces made of gold. It has also contributed carcanets the chains, as the collar. Jewelry pins, rings, bracelets and earrings from the other accessories for their outfits.
Their clothing was not only decorated with ornaments of precious metals and precious stones, it has been woven into the fabric. Bands of gold and silver have been woven into the lining of the noble class clothes. Something we normally do with our renaissance faire costumes, which was then recycle parts of the garment. If the garment was the bands of precious metals were removed and reused in new clothes and coats.
The zibellino is an accessory for only the wealthiest of nobles or the court. This fashionable article of clothing was the pelt or fur of a sable. It was typically worn draped around the neck or the waist. The extravagant and expensive zibellini was injected with a goldsmith and faces with pearl earrings and jewels eyes.
However, before using the money to get that custom zibellino to go with your new renaissance faire costume you better control over the wealth laws. Not everyone could wear certain types of jewelry and substances that are a luxury for the channel. I want you to wear an authentic costume dealer, you probably will not wear gold or zibellino woven into the fabric of clothing.
