This is an example of a hooded cloak.  The cloak is 'shouldered', that is it has a seam following the line of the shoulder, which means the weight of the fabric doesn't drag over to your back every time you move.  Size is 'one size fits all'.   Length can be adjusted.   This can be made to your specifications in terms of

  • Fabric (heavy fabric such as cotton drill, faux suede or corderoy sits well on the shoulders unlined.  flimsy fabric such as silk, satin, polycotton should ideally be lined to give it a bit more weight)
  • Hood lined or unlined
  • Full lining or unlined
  • Choice of fastenings
  • Shouldered layers (none, 1 or 2)
  • Shape of hood (long lyripipe style, pointed as the example in the photograph, rounded at the back of the head, or very full at the back of the head like a kinsale cloak hood).
  • Plain or decorative borders (samples available on request)

A good guideline price for a hooded robe is about £60 with hood lining.  Made of lower end fabric such as cotton drill or polycotton, about £40.  The shouldered layers are nearly full circles to give it the flowing drape, so the addition of shouldered layers will add a bit more to the cost.

Full lining will push the price up a bit, both for materials and the extra time it takes me to cut and fit the lining.  I usually line in fairly cheap fabrics such as lining fabric (the thin slippy stuff), polycotton, or curtain lining fabric if it needs a bit more weight (usually comes in cream).  However if you want something like velvet lined with silk, expect the lining fabric to cost nearly as much as the main fabric.

Postage and packing is charged at cost by package weight for the delivery service you require.  I prefer to send all goods that cost over £30 by a recorded or special delivery service for peace of mind.  I cannot give you an accurate quote of postage and packing in advance as the final finished weight of the item will depend entirely on your choices: the more fabric involved, the heavier the finished item will be.

I accept payment by Paypal or uncrossed postal orders.

If you are interested in placing an order, please contact query@fallenseraphim.com with your specifications.  I will cost your specifications free of charge and provide you with a quote.  Any quote over £30 must have a 50% deposit paid at the time of the order.  If you do not complete the transaction when the item is complete, the deposit is non refundable to defray my costs, unless I have failed to meet your specifications entirely (e.g. I make it in hot pink instead of death gray, or I fail to meet a deadline that I have agreed with you in writing).

The robe photographed was priced up at £60, which is a good guideline price for this garment.

This is an example of a shouldered hood.  Size is 'one size fits all'.  This can be made to your specifications in terms of

  • Number of shoulder layers (1 to 3, the one photographed has 2)
  • Fabric (heavy fabric such as cotton drill, faux suede or corderoy sits well on the shoulders unlined.  flimsy fabric such as silk, satin, polycotton should ideally be lined to give it a bit more weight)
  • Hood lined or unlined
  • Shoulder layers lined or unlined
  • Choice of fastenings
  • Shape of hood (long lyripipe style, pointed as the example in the photograph, rounded at the back of the head, or very full at the back of the head like a kinsale cloak hood).
  • Plain or decorative borders (samples available on request)

I believe I sold the example below at about £40.  Cost on a custom make would depend on the fabric you wanted and the cost I could obtain it for.  The shoulder layers are nearly full circles of fabric to give them the drape you see in the photograph: the more shoulder layers you ask for, the more fabric will be required.

Lining will also push the price up a bit, both for materials and the extra time it takes me to cut and fit the lining.  I usually line in fairly cheap fabrics such as lining fabric (the thin slippy stuff), polycotton, or curtain lining fabric if it needs a bit more weight (usually comes in cream).  However if you want something like velvet lined with silk, expect the lining fabric to cost nearly as much as the main fabric.

Fabric pouches with drawstring closure:  these can be made to your specifications in terms of

  • size
  • general shape (square, oblong, pointed, rounded)
  • fabric
  • lined or unlined
  • drawstring material (ribbon, upholstery cord, leather cord, bootlace, etc)
  • plain or decorative borders (samples available on request)

I do not currently make pouches with embroidery, although I can put you in contact with someone who does these if you want to be referred.

Price per pouch will depend on what fabric and drawstring material you want and the size of each pouch.  I make products in my own time so there may be a small premium if you want a pouch made very quickly or you have a bulk order you want fulfilling very quickly.  As a general price guide I sold unlined pouches for under £3 each, lined were 50p more.
