Customer Reviews

  • positive review  Rest assured I will do business with you again and spread how good your merchandise is. Your patterned coif was amazing in its fit. and quality.

    I received my most recent order today and I just had to come on here to say that getting an order from this shop is second to none - it’s like Christmas every time. Racaire puts a ton of extra care into every order - each item is wrapped like a present, carefully folded, tied with ribbon, and includes care instructions. Getting to unwrap each item is such a joy. Beyond that, the work is spectacular, looks good, and wears well. You can wash and rewash and the prints look as good or better than they did on day one. I would give Racaire 10/10 stars every time.

    positive review  Racaire's Workshop made me this custom X-Large Coif as seen at https://www.facebook.com/Racaires.Workshop/photos/a.148957655152826/2884613781587186/?type=3&theater The customer service including answering a ton of questions related to my'big head' and other unusual/unique requests that I made were absolutely SUPERB!!!! The only thing that surpassed my experience in ordering this coif was the pleasure I have received from wrapping it around my rather 'big head'....:) Looking forward to having the rest of my WARdrobe completed by Racaire's Worlshop!!! with Anna E. Dockery Experience was a 12 out of possible 10....... Boo McAfee

    positive review  Racaire makes beautiful and period pieces from A-Z! My little family proudly owns three of her bags, which are extremely durable and gorgeous! My daughter (5 years old) even has her own sized bag! They go to every event with us and often I use mine as my purse in mundane life. Racaire will only make and sell items which will stand the test of time and is extremely detailed in everything she does. I recommend 10/10!
