Light Pewter Medium Weight Wool Serge - $15.00 yd

Serge was a twilled cloth with a worsted warp and woolen weft. It was of lighter and of better quality then kersey. Many kinds and qualities were woven and used for a variety of end purposes. We have studied a number of serges from the 18th century including a coarse "sarge" in the Foundling collection used as a baby blanket as well as finer Norwich serges made for men's suiting.

This serge is a light medium weight with a soft hand giving it a nice drape.
This medium weight serge would be suitable for men's coats, breeches, waistcoats, jackets, women's riding habits, winter gowns, pelisses and children's clothing.
100% Wool 58 inches wide.
