Piere de Villant was a craftsman in the service of René, Duke d'Anjou (1409-1480). The set, also called a 'chapel', was long housed in the Cathedral of Angers, some 300 km southwest of Paris in the former province of Anjou. The set comprised a chasuble, cope, dalmatic, and a tunicle. The garments were received into the Cathedral on 4 March 1462, in the presence of René d'Anjou and the Duchess (Jeanne de Laval). The set was destroyed during the French Revolution.
