The word jabot is from the French word meaning bird's crop. Originally the term jabot referred to the frilling or ruffles decorating the front of a shirt. It has evolved into a decorative clothing accessory consisting of lace or other facbric falling from the throat, suspended or attached to a neckband or collar or simply pinned at the throat.
More commonly, the lace jabot is the hallmark of Highland elegance. It is worn with a quality kilt, doublet, sporran and hose. Now you can wear it in so many different ways. With a simple blouse it will immediately bring your outfit into another dimension. Over a strappy dress, you will look feminine and oh so special. You could simply wear it as a necklace or choker or wear it with a velvet waistcoat and a pair of faded jeans.
This is a statement piece. A beautiful expression of who you are.
