As the article stands it deals exclusively with paper heraldry. Mantling (lambrequin) as worn in battle and tournament should be acknowledged. --Daniel C. Boyer 18:27, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Not the same thing!

[edit]

The lambrequin is the short drapery that extends from the top of the helm down to the shoulders, to keep the sun off the helm and back of neck. On the other hand the mantle is an all encompassing garment that covers the shoulders and in most cases reaches the ground to protect the wearer from the elements. It may, or may not, have a hood. The mantle certainly did not attach to the top of the helm, under the crest, at the torse. If anybody disbelieves this, secure a double bed-sheet to the top of your head and go for a walk on a windy day (to simulate riding a horse at full gallop). Those who's necks aren't snapped can report back. This article needs a re-write. Kiltpin (talk) 13:42, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've open an discussion on Commons to this topic because English is very unclear here, so Francais is in most the prefered language:[1]User: Perhelion  18:37, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
