clasps

I knew that I had seen the kind of large clasps on the dress from Dala Järna somewhere else.
On this dutch portrait she has similar large clasps on her gollar. I thought yesterday that what we see on the dress may be a red (if that colour is the original) with a gollar on top. There could be a faint line at the level where the pleats start to indicate that.
I will get the book today and I'll keep you posted if I find anything in it. Unfortunately it's from 1961 so the photos are probably black and white.

So the question is: have any of you seen a gollar on top of a dress with those front pleats?

SCA

Just for your information: I recently re-joined the SCA and am now a member of the local shire Gotvik. I don't think I will be very active, Nylöse is quite enough for me. But I felt a) that I wanted to be in the same club as a lot of you, b) that Gotvik is full of very nice people I wouldn't mind doing things with and c) that the rest of Nordmark, especially Juneborg and Aros aren't too bad either :)
