16 Cuff
Cuffs were originally formed by the turning back of the termination of the sleeves at the wrist, and are first visible in ladies' dresses in the 15th century. In the reign of Henry VIII " three yards of crimson cloth of gold damask" are allowed for " the edging, facing, and cuffs " of a gown for the queen. Ben Johnson in 1629 mentions " the cuffs of Flanders." It is not definite whether of Flemish fashion, or of Flemish material. The Low Countries were celebrated for the manufacture of linen, and Flanders disputes with Venice the invention of lace. -
