Sorry for the confusion, the word is CREPINER and when the word ends with ER it is multiple.

Is it crepins, crepin or crepine? You wrote it three different ways...
It could be French, but I'm not sure exactly what it means (yet!).

A friend found a box in an archive, containing letters and bills. One of the bills was for a young girl in 1748, she had boaght caps, stockings, gloves, piano lessons and linnens for embroidery. There was also a pannier with matching "crepiner" in danish. Is there a similar word in french, german for crepines? Could it be skirts, to cover the panniers with? Rolls? I have never seen this word before, and wondered if any have heard anything similar. I know it is difficult because its danish, but crepins dont sound danish to me att all.......

Thanks
